Story

Edgar Tower, the gateway onto College Green, has been a home, a schoolroom (up to the present day), a jail and a defensive rampart in its 700 year history.  It is now in need of urgent repair, and to fund this the Cathedral is offering the opportunity to have your initials carved for posterity on one of the new stones which will be needed to restore it.  The cost of immortality begins at £50 per stone.  Donors will also have a dedication inscribed in a ledger to be placed in the historic Cathedral Library for future generations.  With regular careful maintenance, we expect your stone to last another 700 years.

Please enter the initials you would like engraved in the "Message" box on the donation screen, along with the dedication you would like in the ledger.
