wood, was one of many buildings damaged by fire in 1666 and had to

events, such as Winston Churchill's funeral or wedding of Prince
Charles and Lady Diana.
The major attraction of the cathedral is its large dome, consisting of
three circular galleries. We found the Whispering Gallery, located at
30 meters high and the Stone Gallery, which offers a nice view from
the outside of the dome, but these are outweighed by the Gold
Gallery, located at 85 meters high.

8. It opened on April 28, 1977 but the first 28 years he served as running track.
The owners wanted to turn it into a professional football stadium, so it was rebuilt in
1905.
The construction of the new East Stand turned out To Have Such an effect on Chelsea's
finances though, That the club was almost forced into bankruptcy. The Stamford Bridge
site was sold to property developers in order to pay off some debts, Which almost
resulted in Chelsea being evicted and forced to ground Share with Fulham or QPR.
