Church of St Mary and St Stephen, Bute Street

2026: "In 1843, John Crichton-Stuart, 2nd Marquess of Bute donated the land for the construction of the Church of St. Mary the Virgin (the present Church of St Mary and St Stephen) in Bute Street as a permanent replacement.[7] The cost of construction, however, was met by public appeal for funds. The 1843 church was designed by Thomas Foster of Bristol. The east end (by J. D. Sedding) was added in 1884, later enlarged in 1907. Wall paintings decorate the chancel arch.[8] The church is a Grade II listed building.[9][10]

The River Taff was diverted in 1850 (by Isambard Kingdom Brunel) to create a site to build the Cardiff Central railway station, also resulting in the creation of Westgate Street.

The Theatre Royal (later the Prince of Wales theatre) was built on the site of the old church in 1878.[3] This is now the location of the current Prince of Wales public house. The outline of a Gothic church was included on one wall of the theatre, denoting its location on the St Mary's church site.[11]"
