Photography

Archival Document

We can provide images in almost any form of any part of the cathedral and its treasures, including any detail of Mappa Mundi. All our medieval manuscripts and many of our archives have been microfilmed, and positive copies may be ordered by the reel.

For all orders, permission to reproduce copyright images, and further information, please contact the Librarian.

Permission to reproduce copyright images in any form is dependant upon completion of a copyright form, available from the Librarian. When making a request, please give as much detail as possible about the publication, including print run and expected retail price, if relevant.

Taking photographs in the cathedral
Photographs may be taken in unrestricted parts of the cathedral when services are not in progress if a photography permit is purchased. This costs £1.50 per day for still photography and £2.50 per day for video cameras. Permits may be purchased from the Information Desk in summer and from the Cathedral Shop in winter.

Please note that no photography is permitted in the Mappa Mundi and Chained Library Exhibition. Access to some areas may require special arrangements with the Vergers.
