Archbishop Crolly died during the famine and work on the building was stopped. It began again in 1854 under a new dynamic Bishop, Dr Dixon who appointed another architect, JJ McCarthy to succeed Mr. Duff.
He changed Duff's plan to a purer Gothic Style giving us the lofty twin spires of today's building. Work on the building had again virtually stopped until Dr McGettigan was appointed to Armagh in 1870. He set about the completion of the cathedral and it was dedicated on August 24 1873,...

The anglican cathedral of St Patrick has a medieval core, and was restored in 1765 by Archbishop Robinson. However, its present sandstone exterior is later. The cathdral was brand new when Thackeray visited it in 1842 and admired the eighteenth century monuments inside. These include a stature of Sir Thomas Molyneux by Roubiliac, one of Dean Drelncourt by the Flemish sculptor Rysbrack, and a bust of Archbishop Robinson by Nollekens.
Notice a fine kneeling figure of Primate William Stuart...
