Introduction Durham Cathedral Broderers were founded in 1978 by Mrs Phyllis Richardson, who convened the group until 2002. The Broderers undertake repair and renewal work for the Cathedral, and have completed a number of major projects. Notable examples of their outstanding work are to be found in the Nine Altars Chapel, but many other contributions to the beauty of the Cathedral are also on view. The Broderers are now led by Tracy A Franklin, a freelance embroiderer based in Fowlers Yard, Durham City.
