St Patrick's Cathedral Description
Christ Church Cathedral continued to play a leading part through all the vicissitudes of Irish history over the centuries, although in the 13th C. another church, only 0.25mi/400m away to the south was raised to the status of cathedral and has retained that status, in spite of all subsequent changes, down to the present day. This is St Patrick's Cathedral in Dublin, the largest church in Ireland (305ft/93m long) which is an Anglican cathedral.

At the time of its foundation in the 11th C. the church stood on a marshy site outside the town walls. Like Christ Church Cathedral, it has suffered from over-restoration (1864-69). The massive tower at the northwest corner dates from the end of the 14th C., the steeple from 1739
