Yes, they did. It was a great setting as the evening sun shone directly onto the stage/altar steps. Unfortunately, I spent most of the intermission queueing for a CD so didn't get a chance to look around much.
I really need to go back on a quiet day, it's less than half an hour from mine so I have really no excuse not to visit again.

and remember what i said - get yourself on one of the tours!
The West Tower tour takes you pretty much just up to the top of the tower where you can see the surround countryside really well.
The Octagon tour takes you through lots of corridors and little hidden areas and has some great little photo opportunities :)

Two tours? Hm, I think the Octagon tour sounds more interesting.
Cheers!
