Museum of the Moon in Durham

Museum of the Moon is a touring artwork by UK artist Luke Jerram. Measuring seven metres in diameter, the moon features 120dpi detailed NASA imagery of the lunar surface. At an approximate scale of 1:500,000, each centimetre of the internally lit spherical sculpture represents 5km of the moon’s surface*. Over its lifetime, the Museum of the Moon will be presented in a number of different ways both indoors and outdoors, so altering the experience and interpretation of the artwork. As it travels from place to place, it gathers new musical compositions and an ongoing collection of personal responses, stories and mythologies, as well as highlighting the latest moon science. The Cathedral Church of Christ, Blessed Mary the Virgin and St Cuthbert of Durham, commonly known as Durham Cathedral and home of the Shrine of St Cuthbert is a cathedral in the city of Durham. Construction of the cathedral began in 1093, at the eastern end. In 1986, the cathedral, together with the nearby Castle, became a World Heritage Site. The UNESCO committee classified the cathedral under criteria C (ii) (iv) (vi), reporting, "Durham Cathedral is the largest and most perfect monument of 'Norman' style architecture in England". We were most impressed by this artwork and the Norman pillars in the cathedral. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Durham_Cathedral

The Cathedral Church of Saint Andrew, commonly known as Wells Cathedral, is an Anglican cathedral in Wells, Somerset. The cathedral, dedicated to St Andrew the Apostle, is the seat of the Bishop of Bath and Wells. Unfortunately there were a couple of white vans and workmen with scaffolding at the entrance on the day we visited, hence the curtailed view of the entrance.

Originating in the 11th century, the cathedral was rebuilt in the 12th and 16th century as a parish church and became a cathedral in 1914. Work started on a Gothic revival style tower in 2000; funded by the Millennium Commission, the Stephen Dykes Bower Trust and others. I think some monies came from the EU as well. That won't happen for much longer I'm afraid. It stands in the grounds of the ruins of the old abbey, which was built in the early 10th century,
