I’m from Salisbury, the cathedral grounds are my favourite place in the whole world to go and sit. I sit on the same bench everyday and listen to music.

From the US.....been there twice, absolutely stunning place to visit, from the town leading to the cathedral to the cathedral itself. I spent 5 hours inside the cathedral thinking only an hour had passed, it is that interesting and beautiful. Stonehenge is not to far away.

Just had a tour of the Roman Baths, and now a wonderful trip around Salisbury Cathedral. Looks like I am about to join Alice for a tour of Wells Cathedral. Thanks History Hit, for making my day.

Salisbury is my all time favourite cathedral. I spent 3 years living in the Close while at the teacher training college (1964-67). What a wonderful view every day. Some of the happiest years of my life. I was finally awarded my honorary degree in the cathedral in 2020.

I'm a retired restoration stone mason by trade and working at this place would be the job of a lifetime ⛪

I was there as a student in 1975 and remember the sun setting and the trees beginning to turn. The light turned the tower golden above the trees...one of the most beautiful sights I had every scene! I remember it's Godley ethereal beauty to thus day!

An amazing video. My grandfather was the clerk of the works at Salisbury Cathedral for many years before his retirement and I'm sure he would have loved this video

empathize so strongly with Alice sticking to the wall of the spire on that balcony.

I have been fascinated with Salisbury Cathedral as a cleric and also because I loved "Sarum: The Novel of England," which is a must read. I do hope to visit there one day. Thank you so much for a wonderful peek into the history and construction of this wonderfully gorgeous house of worship. And a special bit of gratitude to Alice and the History Hit crew for their hard work in making this come alive for those of us on the other side of the world. Blessings from the Pacific Northwest in the US.

Seeing my old school in some of the shots has been quite the experience… don’t remember thinking fondly of it at the time but looking back on it, going to school pretty much next to cathedral was honestly incredible

Thank you very much for this video! My favorite books are Pillars of the Earth and World Without End by Ken Follett. The Kingsbridge Cathedral is partially based on Salisbury Cathedral. I love taking in the stunning architecture and history of gothic Cathedrals! As an American we don't have the beautiful centuries-old gothic Cathedral's you have in the UK.
I will always despise Henry VIII for his despicable Iconoclasm of English Cathedrals and Monasteries. Centuries of rich history, cultural, architecture, and art all wiped just so Henry VIII could enrich himself and divorce his wife. Whenever I look at an English Cathedral I try to imagine the stunning and vibrant rainbow of colorful murals and relics that you would have seen in the 1300's. Imagine what the interior of Salisbury Cathedral looked like in it's glory days! It breaks my heart that its all been replaced by bare and whitewashed stone.

What an amazing documentary. Watching how much energy and enthusiasm you have when presenting historical stories makes it really easy to stay engaged until the end of the video!
