St George's Minster replaces an earlier church that burned down in 1853, a 12th century Norman Minster.
The building has been constructed in high Victorian Gothic Revival style by George Gilbert Scott and has the work of many of the lead designers from the time within.
Those names include the German organ builder Edmund Schulze and a clock by Augustus Pugin.
Of particular importance to the church authorities was the replacement of their previous organ, the second largest in England, which had been destroyed by fire.
Edmund Schulze & Son built an organ with an enormous 94 registers over through 5 manuals and 25 pedal stops making it the largest church organ in the country.
