It’s not that unusual for a Cathedral to have a resident cat - I’ve met several over the years. However, Southwark Cathedral’s cat, Hodge, has his own Twitter account and has quite the cult following. Each August the Cathedral hosts a feline themed day of talks and this year I was able to go along.
The day started with a stroll down from Liverpool Street Station, taking in some of the city architecture in the early morning sun.
I arrived at Southwark Cathedral early so I went inside to look for Hodge. Fortunately, he was in a chilled out mood, lounging near the door to the vestry, one of his favourite snoozing spots.
A couple more snaps from around the Cathedral as I headed to Borough Market to grab some lunch.
