The main body of the cathedral was completed in only 38 years, from 1220 to 1258, and because of this short gestation period, it is a fine example of a single architectural style, English Gothic.
The Diocese of Salisbury had an earlier cathedral at Old Sarum a few miles away but this was replaced by the present cathedral when the bishops had moved to Salisbury. The foundation stone was laid on 28 April 1220.[5] Due to the high water level in the new location, the cathedral was built on only four feet of foundation. By 1258 the nave, transepts and quire (choir) were complete. The west front was ready by 1265. The cloisters and chapter house were completed around 1280. DxO Optics Pro 9 ELITE.
