Who Am I?

I am the mother church and largest Roman Catholic church in England and Wales. I opened in 1903. On May 28, 1982, the first day of the six-day visit to the United Kingdom, Pope John Paul II celebrated Mass here. Tothill Fields Bridewell prison previously occupied the land that I was built on. I have a distinguished choral tradition and the choir is considered a fine one. In 1995, at the invitation of Cardinal Basil Hume, I was visited by HM The Queen, the first visit of a reigning monarch of the United Kingdom to a Catholic liturgy for several hundred years.

Good Luck!

Love All Ya All,
Barb
