Worcester Cathedral - V

St. George's chapel is filled with old military flags to honor the country's fallen.

Below is a Coventry Cross. Wikipedia explains:

Coventry Cathedral was severely damaged during the Coventry Blitz, and its roof was destroyed on 14 November 1940. The idea for the cross came from Rev Arthur Philip Wales, who was then rector of St Mark's church in Coventry, which was also damaged in the bombing, and later rector at St Michael's church in Warmington, Warwickshire. He found several large hand-forged medieval carpenters nails as he walked through the ruins of the cathedral on the morning after the bombing. He used some wire to bind together three nails into the shape of a Latin cross, with one nail vertical and two head-to-tail as a cross-piece, and presented them to the Bishop of Coventry, Mervyn Haigh. The Cathedral's Provost Richard Howard had the words "Father Forgive" carved into the wall behind the altar of the ruined building, and two charred beams fallen together into the shape of a cross were erected among the rubble. The original charred cross is now displayed in the new cathedral, constructed after the war adjacent to the ruins of the medieval cathedral, with a replica placed in the standing ruins of the old cathedral.

This particular cross is also made from nails found in the ruins of the coventry cathedral roof and were given to the Diocese of Worcester in 1980 when they celebrated the 1300th anniversary of this cathedral. 

Here is a view along on the aisles parallel to the nave and the choir.

Here is a closer view of where the restoration work is being done.

A view from the main altar looking toward the rose window. If you look closely you can see Elizabeth in there.

After all the years these pieces of colored glass has stood in this window and been in the sun (such as it is in England), they are still saturated and brilliant.
