Bradford Cathedral (Bradford)

The Cathedral of St. Peter is the cathedral serving the major city of Bradford in Yorkshire.

A former parish church, it was elevated to catedral status when the see was founded in 1918.

The oldest parts of the church were built in the 15th century, although this was the third church on the site. At that point the wealthy wool merchants of Yorkshire donated money for its erection.

The tower was added between 1493 and 1508, and in the 18th century there was considerable modernisation in the classical style.

The transepts were added in 1899.
