A late 19th century view of Inverness Cathedral aka the Cathedral Church of Saint Andrew of the Scottish Episcopal Church situated in the city of Inverness in Scotland close to the banks of the River Ness. It is the northernmost cathedral in mainland Britain and was the first new Protestant cathedral to be completed in Great Britain since the Reformation. The foundation stone was laid in 1866 and construction was complete by 1869, although lack of funds precluded the building of the two giant spires of the original design. The architect was Alexander Ross, who was based in the city.
