WORCESTER Cathedral tower is opening to the public for the spring and summer season.

Incredible views over the city can be seen after a 235 step climb up the tower's spiral staircases, over a mediaeval roof space, into the clock room past the bells and on to the roof.

The Dean of Worcester, the Very Reverend Peter Marshall said: "If you have never seen the view from the Cathedral tower, it is worth the climb."

The tower will be open from 10.30am to 4pm on Saturdays and in the school holidays, until the autumn. It is closed on Good Friday and during any services.

Admission is £2 for adults, £1 for children and concessionary family tickets are available. All children must be accompanied by an adult.
