The Cathedral Church of SS. Peter and Paul is the Roman Catholic cathedral of the city of Bristol. Also known as Clifton Cathedral. It’s
in the Clifton area of the city. It has been a Grade II* Listed Building since 2000. The design was primarily by Ronald J. Weeks, working with Frederick S. Jennett and Antoni Poremba of the Percy Thomas Partnership. Building started in 1970 and was finished be 1973. Its style and design was inspired by Vatican 2 and to accommodate the new mass. (Novus Ordo) It can fit 1000 people inside the main hall. Its total cost was £800,000 to build. It also has a memorial to the 1940 Polish massacre at Katyn.
Mass times are as follows: Weekdays 07:30 Saturday 10:30, 18:00 (Vigil Mass)
Sunday 08:00, 09:30 (Family Mass), 11:15 (Solemn Mass), 18:00
With exception of the sign, which is too socialistic for my taste I am am not sure if this is an interesting design or just a quick and cheap
bad design. Same goes for the inside, however saying that there are multiple features that are either interesting or charming in they own ways. If you are in Bristol (UK) its worth a visit but it may take a while for the features to sink in.
