Wakefield is the fourth largest town (it’s a city, actually) in West Yorkshire with a population of around 100,000 – the 14th Century Cathedral has the tallest spire in Yorkshire, standing at 75m (247 feet) tall. It’s a really attractive building – light and airy inside, with a modern extension used as a shop and ‘not for profit’ coffee shop.
The Waterstones is near to the cathedral, and like the cathedral has a bright and spacious feel.
I would like to return to visit the Hepworth Gallery some time.
