You're standing at Ely Cathedral. Locals call it the ship of the Fens, because it rises so high above the flat, wet landscape around it. The west tower is sixty-six metres tall. In the middle of the church, can you see that eight-sided tower with a lantern on top? That's the Octagon, Ely's great showpiece.
