St George's Cathedral in Southwark was designed by Augustus Welby Northmore Pugin, with Frederick Walters restoring and redecorating it from 1888 to 1905 and Romilly Craze designing the post-war rebuild. The article names no client but says a larger church was needed because of Irish immigration. The text says it was built and opened in 1848, while the infobox lists consecration in 1894, which the text does not mention.
The text calls the style Decorated Gothic and the infobox Gothic Revival. It uses yellow stock brick with Portland stone dressings. Pugin's planned taller towers and spire were never built for lack of funds. It gives no dimensions.
It became a cathedral in 1852 and was badly bombed in World War II, reopening in 1958. It is the seat of the Archbishop of Southwark. The article gives no hours.
