Shrewsbury Cathedral, Catholic cathedral in Shrewsbury, England
The Cathedral Church of Our Lady Help of Christians and Saint Peter features decorative stonework and stained glass windows designed in Gothic Revival style.
Edward Pugin completed the construction in 1856 after modifying the original plans due to sandy foundations, resulting in a smaller structure without the intended spire.
The cathedral displays magnificent stained glass works by Margaret Agnes Rope, who created pieces influenced by the Arts and Crafts movement in the early 1900s.
The cathedral offers daily Mass services, accommodates 300 people, and provides live streaming options through its website for remote participation.
Conservation work in 2019 revealed original 19th-century wall paintings by Joseph Aloysius Pippet that were hidden under multiple layers of paint.
