Elgin Cathedral

Elgin, Moray

Elgin Cathedral, a historic ruin in Elgin, Moray, northeast Scotland, was dedicated to the Holy Trinity. After the Scottish Reformation in 1560, the cathedral was abandoned and its services transferred to Elgin's parish church of St Giles. The removal of the roof's lead waterproofing in 1567 marked the beginning of the cathedral's steady decay. [Wikipedia].

It is astonishing that despite hundreds of years of weather exposure (since 1567!) this cathedral still stands. It is beautiful, your capture does it great justice. VV
