St Bridget's Cathedral is the Anglican Cathedral of Kildare. It is the historic cathedral of the Diocese of Kildare, which became Anglican at the time of the English Reformation. It was built in 1223 by Norman Ralph of Bristol, Bishop of Kildare, in an early Gothic style. Its square central tower is low and crenellated, as it was designed to be defensible, a legacy of the troubled times of the early Norman period.

St Canice's Cathedral is the Anglican cathedral of Kilkenny. The present building dates from the 13th century and is the second-longest cathedral in Ireland. Behind the cathedral is a well-preserved 30m round tower dating from the 9th century.

Llangrannog village was established around the church during the 6th century, although there is evidence of an early Celtic settlement at nearby Lochtyn. The church is dedicated to Caranog or Carantoc, son of Corun ab Caredig ab Cunedda, a 6th century saint and founder of several churches in Wales.

An important village church east of Kidderminster.

The church was in 1883-6, by architect J Prichard. He did only the first three bays of the nave (his cruciform plan having proved over ambitious), and Kempson & Fowler added the chancel with the south chapel and north vestry in 1892-3. GE Halliday added the two bays of the west end in 1897.

The ruin of St Catherine's Church was founded in 1233 by the Franciscan Order and built until the 15th century, but was never fully completed due to lack of money. The church was in the middle of the city and a market was created in front of the building.

There is not much information about the origins of the church. It may have been a chapel of a castle during the 10th or 11th century. In 1228, the church is mentioned for the first time. The nave and the tower are the only two original parts of the Romanesque church from before 1228. In 1263, some Gothic parts were added to the building. The choir was renovated in 1747. Afterwards more repairs and maintenance works were done. In 1758, the church was damaged due to a fire. During the 19th century, many renovation works were done. In 1913 a neo-Gothic sacristy was built and the baptismal font and organ were renewed. Not long after 1946, damage from the second World War was restored. The last thorough renovation dates from 1990 until 2002.

St Catherine’s church is located in Fritton, a small Norfolk village four miles east of Long Stratton.

This Gothic church was built in the 14th century and thoroughly renovated around 1400-1450. The Fonteskapel (Fontes Chapel) was added in the 16th century and the Sint-Jozefkapel (Saint Joseph Chapel) in 1673. During the 18th century, the church was richly decorated. The moderate style that characterizes the church today is the result of a thorough restoration in the neo-Gorthic tradition during the 19th and 20th century.
