Designed by Sir Giles Gilbert Scott and built between c.1930-52. The foundation stone was laid in 1932, construction was presumably slowed by the Second World War.
Built in pink granite, the Cathedral is solid Romanesque with touches of Gothic, with a square tower and internally a simple lofty nave and aisles divided by Romanesque arches. Modern Gothic touches are seen in the slightly ogee shaped doorways and decorative detailing.
