The parish church of All Saints contains some elements dating from the 12th to 15th centuries, but it was largely rebuilt 858-1874 by Sir George Gilbert Scott; it became a Cathedral in 1888, beating Halifax to the honour. It is now one of three cathedrals in the Anglican Diocese of Leeds (the others being Ripon and Bradford).

Listed grade I (list entry 1258237).
