Talk:Worcester Cathedral

message: This page's images should be dealt with so they don't confuse the flow so much. Also, the section on "Monuments" seems a bit out there, considering only one is listed. Alekjds talk 01:40, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

message: The Benedictine priory at the cathedral is nowhere mentioned in this article. There were monks and nuns at the Cathedral since the 7th century (see Bede). The monastery became Benedictine in the 2nd half of the 10th century (one author gives the time range 974-7, another considers 969 more likely). The Benedictine monks were driven out at 18 January 1540 and replaced by secular canons. There is an important connection to Fleury as Oswald, bishop of Worcester 961-92, being prior at the same time, was professed at Fleury and introduced the monastric rule of Fleury to Worcester. Likewise important is the former monastic library of Worcester which had a considerable number of manuscripts which are, among other libraries,  now scattered over Cambridge, London (British Library), Oxford Bodleian, and the Cathredral library at Worcester of today.

thread_title:  Benedictine priory is missing 

message: Couldn't understand why there was nothing so added architecture from  bits and pieces spread all over the long (gasp) generic cathedrals article. I always feel that  a good church building is worth a mention of its architecture, especially if it's 1,000 years old. People also tend to forget the hugely  important cultural heritage of well played Bob Major or Grandsire Triples (suppose it's either a rural backdrop they take for granted, or it gets lost  in  city  traffic).--Kudpung (talk) 19:17, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Architecture

message: The first two entries in the list of organists are followed by asterisks, but the reason for this is not explained. Is it because the list is non-continuous there? If so, this should be explained plainly, as even if this is standard practice (I have no idea) it's certainly not obvious to a casual reader such as me. Loganberry (Talk) 23:08, 26 July 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Asterisks? 

message: Didnt really mention anything about the monks daily routine or what the monks did there and that was quite a big part of the cathedal, this is what i was trying to find out.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.186.52.101 (talk) 17:20, 20 May 2011 (UTC)
