England Tourist Arundel Cathedral Sussex
Set high on a hill, dominating the skyline and overlooking the ancient town of Arundel, is the Cathedral Church of Our Lady and St. Philip Howard.
Lower down the hill is Arundel Castle, seat of the Dukes of Norfolk. The church, which was made a Cathedral as recently as 1965, was founded by Henry Fitzalan-Howard, 15th Duke of Norfolk, in 1868. Built in the French Gothic style that would have been popular between 1300 and 1400 it was completed in 1873 and opened to the public on July 1st of that year.
The Church was originally dedicated to Our Lady and St. Philip Neri. Following the canonisation of the martyr Philip Howard, 20th Earl of Arundel, by Pope Paul VI in 1970, as one of the Forty Martyrs of England and Wales and the reburial of his relics in the Cathedral, the dedication was changed in 1971 to Our Lady and St. Philip Howard
A few days before the celebration of Corpus Christi (60 days after Easter) a carpet of flowers is laid down the Cathedral’s central aisle by Cathedral parishioners. Open for public viewing, usually the day before and on the day of the celebration, thousands come to visit the Cathedral and see the flowers. The flowers are trampled underfoot by worshipers at the 5.30pm Mass, which is followed by procession to the Castle for Benediction.

England Tourist Arundel Castle
Overlooking the river Arun and town of Arundel in the English county of West Sussex is Arundel Castle. Home to the Dukes of Norfolk and their ancestors for nearly 1,000 years it is one of the longest inhabited country houses in England.

Climb the steps to the Shell Keep and on up to the battlements. Explore the main rooms of the castle like the Library which has one of the finest Regency interiors, the Armoury with its collection of historic weaponry, the Drawing Room with its splendidly carved chimneypiece. See the stained glass windows, furniture, tapestries and rare collection of paintings by artists including Van Dyck, Gainsborough and Canaletto. Then finally climb the grand staircase to the Castle Bedrooms and Victorian bathrooms.

Arundel Cathedral
Arundel cathedral is the second most dominant feature on Arundel's skyline (after the Arundel Castle of course). If you think the cathedral seems a slightly odd shape, then that's because the original plan to build a spire never materialised - cowboy builders, eh? It is quite an impressive building, and seems a little out of place in such a small town. On approach to Arundel the Cathedral & castle dominate the skyline. Well worth a visit while there.

Some notes:
Arundel Cathedral is a Roman Catholic cathedral in West Sussex, England. Dedicated in 1873 as the Catholic parish church of Arundel, it was not designated a cathedral until the foundation of the Diocese of Arundel and Brighton in 1965. It now serves as the seat of the Bishop of Arundel and Brighton.
The Cathedral's location, construction, design, and dedication owe much to the Howard Family, who, as Dukes of Norfolk and Earls of Arundel are the most prominent English Catholic family, and rank first in the Peerage of England.
While Arundel Castle has been the seat of the Howards' ancestors since 1102, Roman Catholic worship was suppressed in Arundel and elsewhere in England by the Conventicle Act of 1664. Thus, all churches and cathedrals in England were transferred to the Church of England in the period before the Catholic Emancipation Act of 1829.
In 1868, forty years after the foundation of Roman Catholic parishes became again legal, Henry Fitzalan-Howard, 15th Duke of Norfolk commissioned architect Joseph Hansom to design a new Roman Catholic sanctuary as a suitable counterpart to Arundel Castle. The architectural style of the cathedral is French Gothic, a style that would have been popular between 1300 and 1400—the period in which the Howards and the Dukes of Norfolk rose to national prominence in England.
The church was originally dedicated to Our Lady and St Philip Neri, but in 1971, following the Canonisation of Philip Howard, 20th Earl of Arundel and the reburial of his relics in the Cathedral, the dedication was changed to Our Lady and St Philip Howard. (from Wikipedia.)

Arundel is a market town and civil parish in a steep vale of the South Downs, West Sussex, England. Arundel lies 49 miles SSW of London, 18 miles WNW of the English Channel city of Brighton, and 10 miles east of the county city of Chichester. Larger nearby towns include Worthing, Littlehampton and Bognor Regis.
The much-conserved town with large green buffers has a medieval castle and Roman Catholic cathedral. Although smaller in population than most other parishes, Arundel has a museum and comes second behind much larger Chichester in its number of listed buildings in West Sussex. The River Arun runs through the eastern side of the town of Arundel .
Arundel was one of the boroughs reformed by the Municipal Reform Act 1835. From 1836-1889 the town had its own Borough police force with a strength of three. In 1974 Arundel became part of the Arun district, and now is a civil parish with a town council.
Arundel civil parish occupies an area somewhat larger than its built-up clusters, with the old town towards the north and the new to the south, separated by a main road. Arundel town is a major bridging point over the River Arun as it was the lowest road bridge until the opening of the Littlehampton swing bridge in 1908. Arundel Castle was built by the Normans to protect that vulnerable fairly wooded plain to the north of the valley through the South Downs. The town later grew up on the slope below the castle to the south.
Arundel includes meadows to the south but is clustered north of the A27 road, which narrowly avoids the town centre by a short and congested single carriageway bypass. Plans for a more extensive, HQDC bypass were debated intensely between 1980 and 2010 and built a junction for it at Crossbush. Arundel railway station is on the Arun Valley Line. The Monarch's Way long-distance footpath passes through the town and crosses the river here, while just under five miles north and north-west of the town the route of the South Downs Way runs. The town itself lies outside the boundaries of the South Downs National Park.
Arundel is home to Arundel Castle, seat of the Duke of Norfolk; and to Arundel Cathedral, seat of the (Catholic) Bishop of Arundel and Brighton. On 6 July 2004, Arundel was granted Fairtrade Town status. People born in Arundel are known locally as Mullets, due to the presence of mullet in the River Arun. Arundel is home to one of the oldest Scout Groups in the world. 1st Arundel (Earl of Arundel's Own) Scout Group was formed in 1908 only a few weeks after Scouting began.
