A. Roman Catholic Cathedrals, Abbey/Friary Churches, Parish Churches/Chapels (excluding those attached to convents) & presbyteries

The restoration of the Roman Catholic Hierarchy in England and Wales in 1850, only 2 years before EW Pugin commenced practising was a crucial factor in accounting for the subsequent expansion in Catholic church building. Ecclesiastical commissions came both from the secular clergy as well as the Religious Orders, predominant amongst which were the Benedictines and the Oblates of Mary Immaculate. Some of the churches were built through the munificence of members of the nobility & landed gentry, such as the Earls of Shrewsbury and the de Traffords, whilst others were gifts of private individuals, who, in some cases, also gave the land.

In England, the majority of his churches were in the North West, and in Lancashire, in particular: at one time, Liverpool had the largest number of EW Pugin churches/chapels of any UK city, including London. His output peaked in the mid-1860s with the building of no fewer than 12 of his churches being commenced in 1866 alone.

In total, EW Pugin's executed designs for the Roman Catholic Church (either alone or in partnership) include 3 cathedrals (2 in England [A8, A36], 1 in Ireland [A85]), and 94 churches and chapels (67 in England, 21 in Ireland, 4 in Scotland, 1 in Wales and 1 in Belgium – excluding those attached to convents, schools, colleges & orphanages). The majority of his churches are externally faced with stone, only those in the poorest areas being in brick , but with still embellished to varying degrees – according to the available financial resources – with stone dressings/plate tracery. Sadly, at least 18 of his churches and (non-convent) chapels have been either closed or destroyed, occasionally by natural forces [A80, A86] but more often either by bombing in the Second World War [A23, A58, A64, A69] or, more recently and tragically, through the decisions of members of the RC Hierarchy [e.g. A5, A52, A92]. Since the Second Vatican Council in the 1960s (and in some cases – e.g. A12, A33, & also B22, H25 – even before), many of the surviving churches have been victims of insensitive internal reordering, so much so that, in some cases, it is now virtually impossible to envisage the original composition of their sanctuaries, with many High Altars having been severely mutilated [e.g. A6, A8, A98], if not completely destroyed [e.g. A12, A22, A94, & also B22] – actions that were never mandated by the liturgical reforms of the Second Vatican Council.

It should be appreciated that, when first opened, EW Pugin's churches were often incomplete, particularly with respect to the chancel and sanctuary; it could be several years before sufficient funds became available to permit their completion, but the original designs were usually adhered to – even after his death in 1875 when his younger brother, Cuthbert Welby (1840–1928) and half-brother, Edmund Peter [invariably known as 'Peter Paul', having been born on the Feast of Ss Peter & Paul] (1851–1904) continued his architectural practice as the firm of Pugin & Pugin. It is to PP Pugin that we owe many of the fine altars and reredoses that were subsequently installed in EW Pugin's churches [e.g. A23, A28, A68, A72, A97, A98], and which complete their sanctuaries in perfect keeping with his overall designs. In the hands of PP Pugin, the 'Benediction Altar' , the concept of which can be traced to AWN Pugin, and further developed by EW Pugin, reached its apogee. Externally, however, many of the churches still remain incomplete, particularly with respect to their intended spires/towers, occasionally due to foundational problems [e.g. A98], but more usually because of financial constraints [e.g. A28, A68]; this is true to a somewhat lesser extent in the case of his Irish churches, many of which do have their intended spires.

The quality of EW Pugin's churches display a vast variation in both size and opulence, ranging from the Cobh cathedral [A85] and the English de Trafford church [A62] on which no expense was spared, to those he designed for much less well-endowed working-class congregations [e.g. A7, A9, A52], where, in his own words, he was often 'compelled to show what he could not do, rather than what he could.' For, very often, every point of design, every corner, feature that he wished to see produced 'had, in the end, to be sacrificed to necessity – simply for want of means.' It is important to bear this in mind when assessing (i) the indictment that he was a 'wildly uneven architect' [Ref. (xv)] and (ii) the often disparaging, petty and unsympathetic remarks of Pevsner [Ref. (ii)], such as those criticising the fact that, in some cases, capitals remain uncarved! Perhaps a more fundamentally valid criticism is that the interiors of some of his churches – particularly the smaller ones (e.g. A33) – are marred by the nave arcades being disproportionately low in comparison with the height of the clerestory, giving the impression of 'top-heaviness', the pillars appearing to have partially sunk into the floor of the nave (especially once the benches are in position), a defect that is shared, incidentally, by some of his father's churches. Despite, these criticisms, however, he invariably succeeded in designing dignified places of worship even in the most deprived areas where the church became the focal point of the Catholic community; very often the church was the only place of beauty in the locality to which people of all classes had access, and in which they could take justifiable pride, and with which – as opposed to simply in which – they could worship.

Three distinct phases of development are discernible in EW Pugin's oeuvre, particularly in England. The first of these (which lasted from 1852 to about 1859) is characterised by a style that is broadly similar to that on which his father eventually settled, namely, 14th century English Decorated Gothic (or 'second pointed'), in which a clear distinction is observed between nave and chancel, the latter being square-ended and usually under a lower roof line [e.g. A3, A8, A12]. Evidence of a more idiosyncratic, approach, influenced by flamboyant French Gothic, can be discerned, however, as early as 1856, when his predilection for West-end bell-cotes, more fantastical and delicately soaring than those of his father [such as at St Mary's, Warwick Bridge, and at St John's, Alton, for example], first manifested itself [A11].

The second phase (1859–1872) was heralded by designs [A21, A22] – often in (the earlier) 13th century Geometric Gothic – in which both nave and chancel are under the same roof, and internally there is often not even a chancel arch to demarcate the division [e.g. A22, A28]; in some later cases, however, the termination of the nave is emphasised by the eastern-most arcade being sub-divided into two narrower arches, above which on each side is a gabled clerestory window (often in mini-Rose form) [e.g. A33, A69], which externally gives the impression of a kind of embryonic transept. It should be noted that the internal design of A22 was actually rigidly controlled by the then Bishop of Liverpool, Dr Goss, with the aim of ensuring that as many of the congregation as possible had uninterrupted sight-lines to the sanctuary; this EW Pugin achieved by the use of relatively wide arcades and slender pillars. As has been repeatedly pointed out by R O'Donnell [e.g. Ref. (vii)], A22 marked a revolution in RC church design, and one that (with a few exceptions) EW Pugin continued to refine for the next 10 years, until the early 1870s. Sanctuaries of this period are usually contained within an often quite shallow) apsed E. end, which was at first semicircular [A21 & A22 – and also A47], but subsequently polygonal/semi-octagonal (like that in his father's St Chad's Cathedral, Birmingham, & St Mary's, Derby). These chancels are lit either by groups of short lancets at clerestory level above blank walls [e.g. A22, A28, A42], or by longer (traceried) windows [A23, A25, A37, A62, A72] that in later years were often externally gabled [e.g. A62, C19]. Typical of this second phase of development is the composition of the tripartite West-front (formed by two buttresses at the location of the nave walls), characterised by a central main door above which is often, but not invariably [e.g. A51, A72], a deeply recessed Rose/Wheel window (sometimes set above a row of short lancets [e.g. A23, A62, E21]), the apex of the gable being surmounted either by a metal Cross [e.g. A28] or by an elaborate bell-cote that itself supports a tall metal Cross; a notable exception to this formula is provided by the W front elevation of A68. It is mainly designs from this second phase that have attracted appellations such as 'nervous' [Ref. (v)] and 'spiky' [Ref. (xiii)], and the allusion that they even display 'Rogue' elements [Ref. (x)].

His third and final phase (c.1872–75) is characterized by a return to a greater degree of sobriety, redolent of his first period, with a reversion to square-ended chancels, usually of a different height from the nave (A97 is an exception to this), demarcated by a dominant chancel arch [e.g. A94, A95, A97, A98 (which in a number of ways was prefigured by A94), but devoid of any screen. Furthermore, the familiar West-end Rose/Wheel window and the lancet-like apse windows are here interchanged, whilst the bell-cote is abandoned in favour of an off-centre tower/spire [e.g. A97, 98], such as again characterises some of the designs of his first period [e.g. A3, A12, A18] – and, to a lesser extent, also some of his second phase [e.g. A25, A28, A36, none of which were ever completed].

16	1857/59–92 (with J Murray): Dadizele, Belgium – Basilica de Notre Dame: for this work EW Pugin was created Knight of the Order of St Sylvester by Pope Pius IX in 1858; it was damaged during WWI, and later restored to a simpler design.
17	1858–59: Edermine, Co. Wexford, Ireland – Private Chapel (Estate of Sir J Power, MP): most likely a realisation of earlier designs (the window, in particular) by AWN Pugin.

19	1858–60: Kentish Town, London – Our Lady help of Christians: with school-rooms below; remodelled 1876, and used until 1970 when the Catholics and Methodists exchanged church buildings.
20	1858–60: Ballyhogue, Co. Wexford, Ireland – Private Chapel: Bellevue Estate of A Cliffe. The chapel survived the malicious destruction by fire in 1923 of Bellevue House, which was situated to the N. of the chapel, and connected to it by a corridor.
21	1859–60: Warwick, Warks. – St Mary Immaculate. Bell-cote similar to that intended, but not realised, at A24.
22	1859–60: Liverpool, Merseyside – Our Lady of Reconciliation de La Salette: the design, which was rigidly controlled by the Bishop of Liverpool (Dr A Goss) served as the prototype for many of EW Pugin's subsequent churches. PP Pugin's partly wooden High Altar & wooden reredos were destroyed by fire c.1980/81, when the pulpit was also removed. The present W. end entrance is not original, but dates from ?
23	1859–60: Liverpool, Merseyside – Holy Cross (& presbytery, OMI): erected through the munificence of a private individual; a rare example of an EW Pugin parish church in which the roof was elaborately groined throughout. Apsidal chancel & sanctuary of 1874–75; High Altar (1882) by Pugin & Pugin. The church was destroyed by bombing in 1940/1, but the presbytery survived. The church was rebuilt to roughly the same ground plan to the design of C Purcell, the last member of the firm of Pugin & Pugin (see Appendix); it was opened in 1954, and closed by the Archdiocese of Liverpool in 2001, and then demolished.
24	1859–60: (with J Murray): Westby, Lancs. – St Anne (& presbytery): built on land given by Miss Dalton of Thurnham. The elaborate roof timbers are supported on iron columns; there is no evidence of the projected bellcote (similar in design to that at A21).
25	1859–66 (with GC Ashlin ): Cork, Ireland – Ss Peter & Paul: side altars by EW Pugin; High Altar & reredos by Ashlin, 1874; the intended NW spire was never built.
26	1860–66: Peckham, London – Our Lady of Sorrows: served by the Capuchins until 2000.
27	1860–61: Highgate Hill, London ‚ St Joseph's Retreat (CP ): not completed until 1863; demolished in 1888, and replaced with a church by A Vicars in 1889, which contains some of the original fittings.
28	1860–62: Birkenhead, Merseyside – Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception (& presbytery): evolved out of an unrealised project for Birkenhead Cathedral (see K4); intended N. spire never built. Chancel commenced 1874 (completed in 1877 by Pugin & Pugin, who also did the High Altar & reredos in 1899). The church was damaged by bombing in 1941, but reopened in 1951 after faithful restoration (apart from a few minor features); presbytery was totally destroyed by the bomb that damaged the church.
29	1861: Ford Cemetery, Liverpool, Merseyside – Chapel of the Holy Sepulchre (see also H9): demolished c1962/3 – see also H9.
30	1861: Huyton, Liverpool, Merseyside – St Agnes (& presbytery): built on land given by the Molyneux-Seel Family (see also G10, G13); demolished 1965.
31	1861: Ballymurn, Co. Wexford, Ireland – Mortuary Chapel.
32	1861–62: Rusholme, Greater Manchester – St Edward.
33	1861–62: Stafford, Staffs. – St Austin: Projected NW tower & spire never built; High Altar & reredos by Pugin & Pugin, 1884 (removed 1958); Lady Altar (1887) & Sacred Heart Altar (1894) by Pugin & Pugin, both partially destroyed in 1958.
34	1861–62: Poldrate, Haddington, E. Lothian, Scotland – St Mary.
35	1862–63: Stretford, Greater Manchester – St. Ann (& presbytery). built through the munificence of Sir Humphrey de Trafford. Dedication possibly motivated by Annette being the name of Sir Humphrey's wife – see also Footnote 30.
36	1862–64: Northampton, Northants. – Our Lady & St Thomas (Cathedral of the Diocese of Northampton): nave & apse extension of AWN Pugin's Collegiate Chapel of 1844; the interior lay-out was turned through 180° in 1955 when the W. end was extensively rebuilt to become the sanctuary, and a door cut into the original E. wall of EW Pugin's apse; transepts and a squat crossing tower were also added at this time.
37	1862–74/95 (with GC Ashlin): Dublin, Ireland – St Augustine & St John (OSA ): completed by Ashlin.
38	1862–63 (with JA Hansom): Liskeard, Cornwall – Our Lady & St Neot.
39	1863: Barton-upon-Irwell, Greater Manchester – de Trafford Chantry: see also A60.
40	1863–64: Sheerness, Kent – Ss Henry & Elizabeth. built through the munificence of Capt Henry Mostyn & his wife Elizabeth. EW Pugin's High altar & reredos (minus the intended angels) carved by T Earp. The present deeply recessed Rose window at the E. end of the S. aisle dates from 1888, and replaces the two original lancets. The pulpit (1886) is by FA Walters. The presbytery is not by EW Pugin, but by Mr Guilly of Sheerness.
41	1863–64 (with GC Ashlin): Our Lady's Island, Co. Wexford, Ireland – Church of the Assumption.
42	1863–64: Rugby, Warks – St Marie (& presbytery, IC ): built through the munificence of Capt JHW Hibbert of Bilton Grange; an extensive rebuild of AWN Pugin's 1847 church, the nave of which was incorporated as the S. aisle of the new church. The Lady Chapel of the earlier church was completely demolished to make way for the new nave, into which AWN Pugin's High Altar was moved; it was returned to its original position in 1897–98 when the present High Altar & reredos (by TR Donnelly) were installed. Pulpit of 1865 now removed. Also removed in 1960 (together with the choir stalls) is the original metal openwork chancel Rood-screen; the Rood survives, and is now suspended from the ceiling. The W. end was extensively remodelled (1871–72) by B Whelan to include a new Baptistry and belfry-cum-spire that resembles somewhat EW Pugin's unrealised design for Shrewsbury Cathedral – see K1.
43	1863–64: Stourbridge, W. Midlands – Our Lady & All Saints' (& presbytery): reredos by EW Pugin added in 1875 after his death; tower & spire (after EWPugin's design) by GH Cox, 1889-90.
44	1863–64: Croydon, Surrey – Our Lady of Reparation (& presbytery): church later extended by FA Walters.

51	1864–65: Euxton, Chorley, Lancs. – St Mary (& presbytery): built through the munificence of G Garstang & the Anderton Family; design much influenced by the Parish Priest, Rev J Worthy; High Altar by E Kirby, 1888.
52	1864–65: Widnes, Ches. – St Marie: the present W. end bellcote (which predates 1900) is not the original; closed by the Archdiocese of Liverpool in 2007.
53	1864–66: Hoxton Square, London – St Monica (OSA): the main principals of the roof are supported on wooden columns; Lady Chapel is not by EW Pugin, but is by J Young, 1880; see also B10, E29.
54	1864–66 (with GC Ashlin): Donnybrook, Co. Dublin, Ireland – Sacred Heart: tower completed later, but intended spire never built.
55	1864–67 (with GC Ashlin):Killarney, Co. Kerry, Ireland – The Most Holy Trinity (Friary Church OFM: the tower is by PP Pugin & GC Ashlin, 1878.
56	1865: Ashford, Kent – St Teresa of Avila:demolished in 1990.
57	1865 (with GC Ashlin): Arles, Co. Laois, Ireland – Sacred Heart.
58	1865–66: Kensington, London – Our Lady of Mount Carmel & St Simon Stock (ODC): Lady Altar (by Farmer & Brindley) installed 1874; church destroyed by bombing during WWII; ; new church (1954–59) by Sir Giles Scott.
59	1865–66: Stratford-upon-Avon, Warks. – St Gregory the Great (OSB): the present W. front and porch (incorporating the original main entrance) are not the original, but date from 1957–58, when foundational problems necessitated a complete rebuild of the W. wall, but to a quite different design: the buttresses either side of the main entrance were removed, as was the bellcote, and the original Rose window replaced by a 3-light window with geometrical tracery. The present W. end bellcote (to a similar, but less dominant, design than the original) dates from 1988. Despite its appearance, the presbytery is not by EW Pugin, the original (nothern) part of which (dating from 1889) could well be by PP Pugin.
60	1865–67: Birkdale, Lancs. – St Joseph (& presbytery): built on land given by Mr T Weld Blundell; later fittings (including an side altar) by Sebastian Pugin Powell.
61	1865–68: Whitehaven, Cumbria – St Begh/Bee (OSB): the W. end bellcote (the design of which differed significantly from that proposed originally, being instead very similar to that of A61, built during the same period) has long since been dismantled; it was at first replaced by a metal cross, but even this has now disappeared.
62	1865–68: Barton-upon-Irwell, Greater Manchester – All Saints' (& presbytery): the church was added on to the pre-existing de Trafford Chantry (A38) of 1863, which lies to the NE. of the church. Alternating Runcorn (red) and Painswick (white) stone is used interiorally to great effect.
63	1866: Euxton, Chorley, Lancs. – Private Chapel: at Euxton Hall (for the Anderton Family): deconsecrated in1986, and is now a domestic dwelling.
64	1866-67: Brockley RC Cemetery, London – St Michael & All Angels (Mortuary Chapel/Knill Memorial):destroyed by bombing in 1944.
65	1866–67: Wolverhampton, W. Midlands – St. Patrick (& presbytery): demolished in 1971; new church of 1971.
66	1866–67: Barrow-in-Furness, Cumbria – St Mary of Furness: spire not built until 1889.
67	1866–67: Fleetwood, Lancs. – St Mary: original High Altar carved by T Earp; sanctuary (with new High Altar) extended by Pugin & Pugin, c.1909; intended tower & spire never built.
68	1866–68: Preston, Lancs. – St Thomas of Canterbury & the English Martyrs: the church was enlarged by about one third by Pugin & Pugin in 1888 when the nave was extended eastwards (by 2 bays), a W porch & transepts added, and the apsidal chancel rebuilt; the new chancel incorporates (but at a higher level) EW Pugin's reredos of niched statues, but his High Altar was replaced. The intended SW tower was never built.
69	1866–68: Bootle, Liverpool, Merseyside – St Alexander: the original nave (of 7 bays) was extended E. by 3 bays by Pugin & Pugin in 1884 when the original apsed chancel under the same roof line as nave was replaced by a square‚ended one, again under a the same roof line. Destroyed by bombing in May 1941; later rebuilt to a design of FX Verlade, but demolished in 1991. The presbytery (by PP Pugin) survived, as did the school (E32) adjacent to the church.
70	1866–71 (with GC Ashlin): Tralee, Co. Kerry, Ireland – Holy Cross (OP ): completed by Ashlin, without EW Pugin's intended NW. spire.
71	1866 (with GC Ashlin)–72: Kilanerin, Co. Wexford, Ireland – Ss Peter & Paul: completed by EW Pugin, after his split with Ashlin (see Appendix).
72	1866–72: W. Gorton, Greater Manchester – St. Francis (Friary Church of OFM Recollects): the canopied statues in the spandrels of the nave arcade between the arch intersections and the clerestory replicate those at A25. Pulpit (1883); High Altar/reredos (1885) and side altars (1891, 1892, 1893) by PP Pugin. The W. end bell-cote (1911) is somewhat shorter and more restrained than dramatically soaring one intended by EW Pugin. At the time it was opened, it was the largest parish church built in England since the Reformation. The church & adjoining Friary Buildings were abandoned by the Franciscans in 1989, after which they were severely vandalized, but are now undergoing (partial) restoration.
73	1866: Kilburn, London – Sacred Heart (OMI): building proper did not commenced until 1878 under the direction of Pugin, Ashlin & Pugin; the partially completed church was opened in 1879, but was not finished (without the intended NW. tower & spire) until 1899. W. porch/narthex was added c.1959 to the design of Gordon & Gordon; original chancel and S. aisle demolished c.1963, and rebuilt to quite different designs of FG Broadbent & Partners, the new S. aisle being greatly extended southwards.
74	1867: Dover, Kent – St Paul:built through the munificence of the Countess de Front. Apsidal chancel (to the design of EW Pugin) added in 1873, the present large central lancet of which is not original, but dates from alterations of 1959, which included removal of EW Pugin's reredos. Roof & internal fittings destroyed by fire in October 1987; the faithfully restored church reopened one year later.
75	1867–68 (with GC Ashlin): Monkstown, Co. Cork, Ireland – Sacred Heart (& presbytery): tower & spire, 1876–77/81.
76	1867–69 (with GC Ashlin): Ballyhooley, Co. Cork, Ireland – Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
77	1867–69 (with GC Ashlin): Glasthule, Co. Dublin, Ireland – St Joseph (& presbytery): intended tower & spire never built.
