Description

The imposing Anglican cathedral dominates the Mall. Having gone through many turbulent times, the building in its current form dates from the early 19C but has a few older features retrieved from the previous ruins. Inside, notice the fine organ from the 18C, the bishop's throne and the baptistery, made out of a medieval trough. The believers still come to pray in the cemetery near the granite slab that supposedly covers the place of St Patrick's tomb.
