March 31, 2017: The spire with the cross of the Roseau Cathedral has been removed.

As the roof renovation works on the Roseau Cathedral progress, the cross and the timber posts on the bell tower were removed to be replaced with new materials.

I have always wanted to know more about the cross on top of the steeple.  It was unclear from documents who installed it and how tall it is.

What we found was both fascinating and somewhat disappointing and I will tell you more about this cross in an article, which will be posted on   https://bernardlauw.wordpress.com

Below is my photograph of the cross. The detailing is fascinating.
