Westminster Cathedral

As you walk along Victoria Street, you'll come to a large piazza dominated by Westminster Cathedral with its 284ft-high bell-tower called St. Edward's Tower.

Over the main door, there's a mosaic representing Christ, St. Peter, Edward the Confessor and the Virgin with St. Joseph.

The interior's richly decorated with marble and mosaics. I especially liked those in the Lady Chapel on the right.

The most important Roman Catholic church in Britain was designed by Bentley and consecrated in 1910.
