Bishop’s Gate

This gateway helps explain the connection between the upper town and streets descending towards the river. Walk through the arch and compare nearby houses with the cathedral’s scale. Stone frames a particularly photogenic view; return to the cathedral quarter or save the descent for a later riverside outing.
