Whilst staying at the Holiday Inn Leeds-Wakefield and visiting the city centre, why not take time out to see Wakefield Cathedral, the tallest church in Yorkshire, with a spire reaching a height of approximately 247ft, which still proudly dominates the city skyline today.
A hidden architectural gem here in Wakefield, it has origins of a pre-Conquest church. However, the story of the present building started circa 1150, when parts of the Church's surviving nave north arcade were originally built.
There are a good selection of events being held in the City's beautiful Cathedral each month. Visit Wakefield Cathedral's What's On page for more information, timings, etc.
The Cathedral bookshop also offers a comprehensive range of Christian books for both adults and children, which also reflect the approaching seasons of the Church's year, together with a variety of religious gifts, cards and CDs (as well as recordings of Wakefield Cathedral Choir and organ).
Bookshop opening times:
Monday - Saturday: 10.00 am - 4.00 pm
Telephone 01924 373923
