This boldly modern Roman Catholic Cathedral was consecrated in 1973. Commissioned from the Percy Thomas Partnership just as the Second Vatican Council was meeting, the cathedral’s design was among the first to respond to its decree that a congregation should have a good view of the high altar. Its solid blocks of reinforced concrete and Aberdeen granite are largely unbroken by side windows. The light washes down from roof lights. But there are two glowing stained glass windows by Henry Haigh.
