A new website for the Lichfield Centre of Christian Studies (LCCS) has

Lichfield, Lichfield Cathedral and Staffordshire University, and
chiefly serves as a centre for theological education, offering an MA
course and hosting one-off Lecture Days on a variety of Christian
subjects. The Centre is also involved in the Lichfield Unplugged
project, which is investigating how wireless technology might be used
in Lichfield Cathedral.

InSpires Construction Begins |

Monday, 09 June 2008 |
It's what's inside that counts!
It is business as usual at Lichfield Cathedral - despite a new appearance this week. Following the launch of Lichfield Inspires by Royal Patron, His Royal Highness, the Duke of Gloucester on 30th April of this year, contractors move-in this week to commence work on this ‘once-in-a-century’ project.
Scaffolding, hoardings, work compounds and a viewing platform will start to be erected from Wednesday 28th May, which will of course mean a drastic alteration to the building's external appearance. Despite this, visitors can expect very little disruption during a visit to the Cathedral and should not be deterred from exploring this national treasure during the summer months.
