Leeds Cathedral (formally the Cathedral Church of St Anne) is a Roman Catholic cathedral in Leeds, Yorkshire, in the West Riding. It is the seat of the Bishop of Leeds. It was designed in the Arts and Crafts Gothic Revival style by John Henry Eastwood, and constructed from 1901-1904. It replaced a previous cathedral on The Headway, demolished for a road-widening scheme in 1899. The reredos of the old cathedral's high altar, designed by A.W.N. Pugin in 1842, was moved to the lady chapel of the new cathedral. The cathedral is within the council area of Leeds.
