[[File:St Giles' Cathedral, High Street, Royal Mile, Edinburgh (57) - The Thistle Chapel.jpg|thumb|[[Thistle Chapel]] at [[Edinburgh's High Kirk]] (completed 1910)]]In England, partly in response to a philosophy propounded by the [[Oxford Movement]] and others associated with the emerging revival of 'high church' or [[Anglo-Catholic]] ideas during the second quarter of the 19th century, neo-Gothic began to become promoted by influential establishment figures as the preferred style for ecclesiastical, civic and institutional architecture. The appeal of this [[Gothic revival]] (which after 1837, in Britain, is sometimes termed [[Victorian Gothic]]), gradually widened to encompass "low church" as well as "high church" clients. This period of more universal appeal, spanning 1855–1885, is known in Britain as [[High Victorian Gothic]].<ref>{{Cite book|last=Hersey|first=George L.|url=http://archive.org/details/highvictoriangot0000hers|title=High Victorian Gothic; a study in associationism|date=1972|publisher=Baltimore: Johns Hopkins University Press|others=Internet Archive|isbn=978-0-8018-1285-9}}</ref>

The [[Palace of Westminster]] in London by Sir [[Charles Barry]] with interiors by a major exponent of the early Gothic Revival, [[Augustus Welby Pugin]], is an example of the Gothic revival style from its earlier period in the second quarter of the 19th century. Examples from the ''High Victorian Gothic'' period include [[George Gilbert Scott]]'s design for the [[Albert Memorial]] in London, and [[William Butterfield]]'s chapel at [[Keble College, Oxford]]. From the second half of the 19th century onwards, it became more common in Britain for neo-Gothic to be used in the design of non-ecclesiastical and non-governmental buildings types. Gothic details even began to appear in working-class housing schemes subsidised by philanthropy, though given the expense, less frequently than in the design of upper and middle-class housing.{{Citation needed|date=April 2020}}

The middle of the 19th century was a period marked by the restoration, and in some cases modification, of ancient monuments and the construction of neo-Gothic edifices such as the nave of [[Cologne Cathedral]] and the [[Sainte-Clotilde, Paris|Sainte-Clotilde]] of [[Paris]] as speculation of mediaeval architecture turned to technical consideration. London's Palace of Westminster, [[St Pancras railway station]], New York's [[Trinity Church (Manhattan)|Trinity Church]] and [[St. Patrick's Cathedral (Manhattan)|St Patrick's Cathedral]] are also famous examples of Gothic Revival buildings.<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.architecturaldigest.com/gothic-architecture |title=Amazing Gothic and Gothic Revival Architecture |website=Architectural Digest |access-date=2020-08-15 |archive-date=25 October 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201025110516/https://www.architecturaldigest.com/gothic-architecture |url-status=live }}</ref> The style also reached the [[Far East]] in the period, for instance the [[Anglicanism|Anglican]] [[St John's Cathedral (Hong Kong)|St John's Cathedral]] located at the centre of [[Victoria, Hong Kong|Victoria City]] in [[Central, Hong Kong]].{{Citation needed|date=April 2020}}
