The York Oratory (Feb 2024)

The York Oratory - York, England 

The Oratory Church of Saint Wilfrid, York (or York Oratory for short) is a Catholic church in York  England.
A church dedicated to St Wilfred has stood in York since medieval times. The church is known as the "Mother Church of the city of York"  It is in Gothic Revival style. The arch over the main door has the most detailed Victorian carving in the city. The present church was completed in 1864 and is considered to be one of the most perfectly finished Catholic churches in England, rich in sculptures, paintings and stained glass. In 2013, the church was entrusted to the Oratorian fathers 
It is within the Diocese of Middlesborough and was the second pro-Cathedral of the Diocese of Beverly until its dissolution in 1878.

the appearance can be a little misleading as the street view it looks like a small church but on entry it was a totally different story. the church was just a 2 minute walk from York Minister
