I don't know why I thought this would be hideous but it isn't, it's pretty majestic! I liked its gothic style and it's crazy that it was only finished in 1990, and yet it's made it onto the historic buldings register! Look out for the lunar rock and the Bishop's garden.

It caught my eye as an anomaly on the landscape, with its European stylings it stood out and called to me. It's totally stunning and you can't miss the views from the Pilgrim's Gallery.

Stunning architecture set in beautiful grounds. We took a short audio tour where we learnt about stain glass, the choir and the clergy plus the cathedral history for just $5. Money well spent.
