The above view of Lichfield Cathedral is that of the south door and seven saints.
Lichfield Cathedral is situated in Lichfield, Staffordshire, England.
It is the only medieval English cathedral with three spires.
The Diocese of Lichfield covers all of Staffordshire, much of Shropshire
and part of the Black Country and West Midlands......
here were three great sieges of Lichfield during the period 1643–1646
as the cathedral was surrounded by a ditch and defensive walls it made
a natural fortress. The cathedral authorities with a certain following were
for the king, but the townsfolk generally sided with the parliament, and
this led to the fortification of the close in 1643. Robert Greville,
2nd Baron Brooke, led an assault against it, but was killed by a
deflected bullet from John Dyott (known as 'dumb' because he
was a deaf mute) who along with his brother Richard Dyott had
taken up a position on the battlements of the central cathedral
spire on 2 March 1643. Brooke's deputy Sir John Gell, took over the siege.
Although the Royalist garrison surrendered to Gell two days later,
the close yielded and was retaken by Prince Rupert of the Rhine
on 20 April of the same year. Rupert's engineers detonated the first
mine to be used in England to breach the defences. Unable to defend
the breach, the parliamentarians surrendered to Rupert the following day.
The cathedral suffered extensive damage: the central spire was demolished,
the roofs ruined and all the stained glass smashed. Bishop Hacket began
the restoration of the cathedral in the 1660s, aided by substantial funds
donated by the restored monarch, but it was not until the 19th century
that the damage caused by the Civil War was fully repaired. Up until the
19th century, on top of an ornamented gable, between the two spires,
stood a colossal figure of Charles II, by Sir William Wilson. Today it stands
just outside the south doors. Source: Wikipedia/jlou
