as a former pupil of Southwell minster grammar school, I used to love our assemblies in the quire of the minster. To walk past the minster on the way to lunch at home as the bells played the tune 'Southwell' is something I will never forget.

I remember the minister as a cub scout on St George's Day and then seeing it when my son played rugby in the background when he played on the minister school pitches. It's great to have fond memories that include the minister - thanks for watching

There certainly was something special about playing Rugby (and cricket) with the Minster in the background.@@ExpeditionHiker

Hi Anthony, the more the walk around Nottinghamshire the more I find out, which is starting to become a series of walks in the county - I have an interesting one that I am walking round in the next few days. that caps most of my historical walks
