Timeline
15:38
Start with a pint at The Wellington. It is a short walk away and has been open since 10:00. The knowledgeable staff can recommend a real ale or cider to kick off the evening.
16:03
Walk to St Chad's Cathedral. Enter the building and find a quiet spot near the Shrine of St. Chad. The interior light is shifting as the sun begins to set toward the SW, casting a warm glow through the windows.
16:38
Head to Victoria Law Courts. The terracotta decorations on the building catch the last of the golden light beautifully. It is a brief walk from the cathedral and offers a striking architectural contrast.
Local tip
The Wellington is open until midnight on weekdays and weekends, so you can linger after the cathedral closes at 17:00 if you wish. Victoria Law Courts is accessible from the street during daylight hours.
