The Roman Catholic church of St Mary in Buttermarket Street was the last church to be designed by E.W. Pugin before his early death in 1875 at the age of 40. The church was opened in 1877. Buttermarket Street contains several attractive Georgian buildings and in 1972 was designated a conservation area.
