Penniless Porch, Wells

"The Penniless Porch in Wells, Somerset, is an entrance gateway into a walled precinct, which encloses the twelfth century Cathedral, the Bishop's Palace, Vicars' Close and the residences of the clergy who serve the cathedral... The Penniless Porch was built around 1450, by Bishop Thomas Beckington and... was named for the beggars who plied their trade there..." Wikipedia

A sunny start to the day, so on the spur of the moment decided to pop down to Wells to do a spot of shopping at the market this morning. But by the time we arrived at England's smallest city, the sky had become threatening, and it wasn't long before it started to rain. So after a quick scoot around the market, we sought shelter in the Cathedral cafe, before heading home once the rain had eased.
