Yes the cathedral is very modern after the bombings in WWII.

Are the pics at the beginning just after the bombings?

Yes, to keep the secret of our Enigma decoding machine Churchill let Coventry to be bombed.

That must have made Coventry feel really good. :o

A sacrifice indeed but keeping the fact that we had cracked the German coding machines via Turing etc helped us to win the war.

That must be about the same time as I saw them live in Newcastle - give or take a year or two.
