The South Aisle - in guidebook for St Chad's Cathedral, Birmingham, UK - Father Brian Doolan

This quote was added by siara
At the top of the south aisle on one of the ceiling panels is painted the inscription Deo Gratias November 22 1940. It marks the place where an incendiary bomb fell through the roof during the Second World War. The bomb bounced on the floor and then exploded against one of the radiators, which burst. The water extinguished the bomb and the Cathedral survived the war intact.
