Cathedral of St. John the Evangelist, Portsmouth

It is important to mention that the Cathedral of Saint John the Evangelist is happily situated close to the center of Portsmouth city and also near the royal navy. It has had this same location since the year 1882. From an architectural point of view, the building belongs to 19th century French Gothic architecture; the building has shallow transepts and a curved apse to attest to this. Some parts of the building, especially the areas around the windows, are dressed in Portsmouth stone and these parts proved their resistance when the building was bombed during the 2 World Wars.
