We're privileged to have access to views of the Cathedral most people never see. The huge trap door in the floor of the ringing chamber has a couple of spy holes to the chancel crossing, so we can see where the wedding party are up to when processing out. Moons not often seen!

It's three years since 'Methods' @durhamcathedral: 24 hours of live bellringing performed for an audience of thousands seems like a lifetime ago! Rewatch behind the scenes: youtu.be/mKAktXh-2_c @lumieredurham @pablovalbuena

If you were listening out on Thursday evening you might have heard us ringing @durhamcathedral for the first time since March! We were checking the bells and measuring up to plan for future ringing with social distancing. #ringingwithamask

Thanks to Paul Oliver for sending us these beautiful images of a rainbow over Durham, captured from the top of our central tower. Aren't those views amazing?
