About this book
The Cathedral Church of Hereford, by A. Hugh Fisher, is a description of its fabric and a brief history of the episcopal see. The preface says the series of monographs was planned to supply visitors to the great English Cathedrals with accurate and well illustrated guide-books at a popular price.
According to one writer, the body was privately buried on the bank of the river Lugg, near Hereford, and the Monkish Annalist says that on the night of the burial a column of light, brighter than the sun, arose towards heaven. The text says that three nights afterwards the figure, or ghost, of King Æthelberht appeared to Brithfrid, a nobleman, and commanded him to convey the body to a place called Stratus Waye. Bishop Westphaling was once preaching in his cathedral when a mass of frozen snow fell upon the roof from the tower, creating a panic, but the Bishop, remaining in his pulpit, exhorted them to keep their places and fear not.
