Not last century, Zacs-Master, the century before last!
You seem to being wise after the fact. Your first post suggested that you believed that a city had to have a cathedral. My post merely pointed out that this is not, in fact, correct. Conversely, and simply as a point of interest, there are 16 towns with Cathedrals

mike11111- I assume Yakatak is talking about Bolton in Lancs/ Greater Manchester rather than the area of Skipton, Yorks in which Bolton Abbey can be found
MASS, I was simply backing you up as a fellow Boltonian.
Correct Hopkirk.
mamyalynne, was typing that before you posted. we'll stick together eh
Oh yes.
Last post on this from me, Z-M, as it's going nowhere.
My first post said "It's not a city so maybe not". I didn't say "it's not a city so definitely not". It is the case that most places with cathedrals are also cities, and most cities have a cathedral- so I think one is a good indicator of the other.... and in fact I was right as we have indeed established now that it has no cathedral.
But thanks for pointing out some counter-examples
My pleasure.
So Yakattack.

Hope that answered your question. Noticed you stayed well clear of the discussion!!
It's interesting to see that we have quite a few ABers living in/close to the town of Bolton. I worked there for a while once.
I wonder if I ever bumped into any of you?
Factor30 and All.
That's what is sooo brilliant about this site. We can all give our opinions and 'discuss' alternatives. Most ABers are friendly, open and honest with replies yet very few of us will ever meet (knowingly). Mamyalynne may be my next door neighbour, unlikely but??
Well if any of you haven't been to Bolton Abbey you should go, it's lovely and beautiful countryside. And the Devonshire Arms is worth a visit.
