Summary

"There are few schools that can claim 1100 years of history. Wells Cathedral School is one of them, and in 2009 it joins with city and cathedral to commemorate and celebrate that momentous anniversary. Records of its early years are sparse; but its tradition of education choristers and young men destined for the church resonates proudly down the centuries - 'oozing out of the ancient buildings and echoing on the cobbles of Vicars' Close', to quote one of its recent pupils."--BOOK JACKET.
