The Cathedral Church of Saint Barnabas is the cathedral of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Nottingham. The cathedral is Grade II* listed and built in the Early English Plain Gothic style. It is considered to be one of the best specimens of Pugin's work.
The Cathedral and Parish Church of the Blessed Virgin Mary is popularly known, as it has been for centuries, as Southwell Minster. Although Christian worship has taken place on this site for over 1000 years, the present Romanesque building dates from 900 years ago.
St Mary's is the ancient Parish and Civic Church of Nottingham, the largest medieval building in the City and an excellent example of the Perpendicular style of architecture. It is believed that the present building is the third church on the site.
St Peter's Church is a Grade I listed building and was first constructed in 1180, with the tower and spire completed in 1340. Standing in the heart of the city of Nottingham, the church is open seven days a week and plays host to a great many visitors.
St Nic's, as it is locally known, is an Anglican parish church in the centre of the city. With the demolition of slum housing in the Broadmarsh area during the 1960s to make way for Maid Marian Way, St Nicholas was left without any parishioners in its parish boundaries.
