Building
The Cathedral, designed by Pugin and opened in 1848, was the first Roman Catholic Cathedral in Britain since the Reformation. Badly bombed in 1941 during the Second World War, much of his original work remains in the rebuilt Cathedral, re-opened in 1958. It is the mother church of the Archdiocese of Southwark which incorporates the Dioceses of Arundel & Brighton, Portsmouth, Plymouth and Southwark.
