In 1857 a major program of restoration was begun under Bishop Henry Philpott, including work by Sir George Gilbert Scott. The cathedral's organ also appears to have been damaged although the first man who attempted to take an axe to it slipped and fell from a step ladder and broke his neck! Some five years later lead and timbers were stripped from parts the building, and in 1651 fighting between the factions involved in the Civil War broke out, and the cathedral lay unrepaired for many years. In 1642 parliamentarian troops occupied buildings the nave and cloisters were used to house the troops and their horses, with the quire and aisles used as latrines. Screens across the nave were destroyed, the monks' stalls were removed and stained-glass windows were either taken away or defaced, and a number of statues were damaged too. In 1540 the Benedictine monastery was dissolved, the Shrines of St Oswald and St Wulfstan having been previously destroyed and their bodies reburied in unknown places. South of the nave are the cloisters, built in Perpendicular style, as is the north porch. The cathedral is unusual in that it has two transepts. The first one fell down in 1175 and the second was taken down because it was unsafe. The tower is in the centre of the building, and is 200 feet high. The nave and aisles are mainly of the decorated period, built under Bishop Cobham from 1317 to 1377. When King John died in 1216 he requested to be buried in Worcester. The 13th century choir was built over the crypt however, structural problems arose and the east part of the crypt had to be reinforced and filled in. The cathedral became a great centre of pilgrimage, and in 1224 the cathedral was extended at the east end by adding a lady chapel and rebuilding of the choir. Wulfstan's church housed the shrine of St Oswald and eventually Wulfstan himself was canonised, and a shrine built to hold his relics. This was nearly as big as the current Cathedral building, the crypt was built at this time, and is one of the finest surviving Norman buildings. In 1084 Bishop Wulfstan (1008-1095) began the construction of the new Cathedral at Worcester. The present early 12th century one is possibly a prototype of those at Wells and Lincoln He also founded a monastic community at the new Cathedral Church of St Mary in Worcester. He also founded the monastic community at Westbury on Trym and established the community at Ramsey from which were founded those at Pershore and Evesham. In 983 another Cathedral was built by Oswald next to Bosel's original structure. Bosel, the first Bishop of Worcester, bought Christianity to the long established and fortified town. There was originally a church in Worcester in Saxon times, which stood for some 300 years. Worcester Cathedral is possibly one of the most interesting of all England's cathedrals.
