Photograph of St John's Cathedral, with a caption that reads: 'St John's Cathedral, North Front. The view here given is taken from the courtyard of Messrs Augustine Heard & Co's premises abutting on the Parade Ground, and shews the building to advantage. The new Chancel was added in 1872, and has rendered the somewhat small "Cathedral" more worthy of the name. The building is of brick, with granite foundations, the interior being plainly but neatly finished. It contains a very fine organ (built by Bryceson & Co of London) of 28 stops on three manuals and pedals with a total of 1,260 pipes. The instrument was thoroughly repaired in 1867 and moved from the Gallery to the North East Chapel'.
