Brief description

"The Cathedral Church of Our Lady Help of Christians and Saint Peter of Alcantara, commonly known as Shrewsbury Cathedral, is a Roman Catholic cathedral in Shrewsbury, England. It is the seat of the Roman Catholic Bishop of Shrewsbury and mother church of the Diocese of Shrewsbury, which covers the historic counties of Shropshire and Cheshire.

The cathedral is particularly notable as being the only cathedral in the county. Unlike most other English counties and county towns, neither Shropshire nor Shrewsbury have a Church of England cathedral. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shrewsbury_Cathedral

The Cathedral was designed by Edward Pugin, opened in 1856 and contains seven stained glass windows of the 1910s, 20s and 30s by the world renowned Margaret Rope, of the Arts and Crafts movement."
