<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Tonight's edition of The Antiques Roadshow came from
Southwell Minster. In her introduction Fiona Bruce explained that a
minster was created by a community when priests and the local community got
together to finance and build one as a mother church. She explained
that the difference between a cathedral and a minster is that the
cathedrals had monastic origins, whereas minsters were community mother
churches. She said that Southwell is one of only five minsters in the
country!</FONT></DIV>
