서머싯의 중심부에 자리 잡은 The Bishop's Palace는 800년 넘게 바스 앤 웰스 주교들의 공식 거처로 사용된 13세기 중세의 웅장한 저택입니다. 인상적인 석조 성벽과 자연 온천수가 흐르는 그림 같은 해자(성 주변의 물길)로 둘러싸인 이 영지는 교회 역사를 엿볼 수 있는 숨 막히게 아름다운 풍경을 선사합니다. 중세 시대의 성문과 도개교를 지나 들어서면 14에이커에 달하는 아름답게 가꾸어진 평온한 정원이 펼쳐집니다. 방문객들은 역사적인 도시 웰스(Wells)라는 이름의 유래가 된 자연 샘물인 명상적인 우물 연못을 탐험할 수 있으며, 생기 넘치는 허브 화단과 담쟁이덩굴로 뒤덮인 그레이트 홀(Great Hall)의 낭만적인 유적도 감상할 수 있습니다. 이 궁전은 수 세기에 걸친 건축 유산과 조용하고 자연스러운 우아함을 완벽하게 조화시킵니다. 이곳에 사는 혹고니들은 배가 고프면 성문 근처의 종을 울리도록 훈련받았다는 것으로 유명하여 방문객들에게 매력적인 경험을 더해줍니다. 이곳은 방문객들이 잠시 속도를 늦추고 영국 역사의 정수를 온전히 느낄 수 있도록 초대하는 더없이 평화로운 여행지입니다.

This picturesque moated medieval castle was built in the 1370s by Sir John de la Mare. It's heavily influenced by French design and features a compact layout with four round corner towers and thick defensice walls.

About the patronage of this church: Saint ANDREW is one of the twelve apostles that Jesus Christ called to follow him. However, in the biblical accounts he is usually somewhat overshadowed by his much more famous brother: Saint Peter. In the Gospels we find the calling of the two siblings presented in different ways. According to the text of the Gospel of John (John 1:40-42), Andrew is called first (together with another disciple whose name is not mentioned). Later he tells his brother that he has found the Messiah. The feast of Saint Andrew in the calendar of saints is on November 30th in all major Christian denominations. The X-shaped white "St. Andrew's Cross" on which he was executed forms the national flag of Scotland against a blue background and has also found its way into the national flag of the United Kingdom of Great Britain.

A truly magnificent Cathedral and a great place to stop for a break. There are benches and a large green in front of the Cathedral. There are also some very pretty surrounding buildings, especially in Vicar's Close.

You can enter part of the grounds for free, the other parts are charged. The building is well maintained and still used and much bigger than it initially appears to be.

As the seat of an ancient cathedral and diocese, Wells is historically regarded as a city. Its city council boundary area, surrounded wholly by countryside makes Wells the smallest free-standing city in the UK (2.11 sq mi). The City of London is smaller but is part of a much larger urban area.

Built in the late 14th century by Sir John Delamare on the profits of his involvement in the Hundred Years War. https://www.english-heritage.org.uk/visit/places/nunney-castle/
