The Cathedral Church of St Nicholas Newcastle upon Tyne is the Church of England Cathedral in Newcastle. The cathedral is named after St Nicholas, the patron saint of sailors and boats. It was originally a parish church, built in 1091. In the mid-19th century Newcastle experienced a huge increase in its population, leading to the construction of over 20 new churches in the suburbs. As Newcastle continued to grow, so did its need for a diocese separate from Durham, and so in 1882 the Diocese of Newcastle was formed, with St. Nicholas’ as its cathedral. With this, Newcastle was designated a City in the same year. The cathedral is notable for its unusual lantern spire, which was constructed in 1448. At its base the tower measures 36 ft 9 in (11.20 m) by 35 ft (11 m) and it is 196 ft 6 in (59.89 m) from the base to the top of the steeple.
