Summary

[edit]
Description

The Wallingford Screen in the Cathedral and Abbey Church of St Alban (St Albans Cathedral, formerly St Albans Abbey; <a href="http://britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/en-163207-abbey-church-of-st-alban-hertfordshire" rel="nofollow">Grade I listed</a>). From Wikipedia: The Wallingford Screen of c. 1480—the statues are Victorian replacements (1884–89) of the originals, destroyed in the Dissolution of the Monasteries, when the screen itself was also damaged. Statues of St Alban and St Amphibalus stand on either side of the altar.

On 3 November 2013, a friend who is training to become a Green Badged tour guide of St Albans offered a guided tour of St Albans to Hertfordshire GOC as part of his training. The tour covered the market area, Romeland and the perimeter of the abbey. I also went inside the abbey after the tour. I don't remember most of the details we were given of the history. Also, I'm only uploading my best photos rather than the entire tour. Please check out the other photos from the walk <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/anemoneprojectors/sets/72157637729178863/">here</a>, or to see my collections, go here: <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/anemoneprojectors/collections/">www.flickr.com/photos/anemoneprojectors/collections/</a>.
