The Diocese was created from part of the Diocese of London, and comprised Westminster which was raised to the dignity of a city status in the United Kingdom city , and the county of Middlesex , with the exception of Fulham . Fulham was excluded as it was the site of Fulham Palace , residence of the Bishop of London. Westminster Abbey became the cathedral of Saint Peter and Thomas Thirlby became Bishop of Westminster. Ten years later in 1550, on Thirlby s move to become Bishop of Norwich , the diocese was merged back into the Diocese of London . Westminster retained its city status. The cathedral became an abbey again six years later. A Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Westminster was formed in 1850.

for Westminster parliament records Records of members of parliament of the United Kingdom Westminster Records was an American classical music record label , issuing original recordings from 1949 to 1965. It was founded in 1949 by Mischa Naida, the owner of the Westminster Record shop in New York City , businessman James Grayson, and conductor Henry Swoboda . Its trademark was Clock Tower, Palace of Westminster Big Ben and its slogan was natural balance , referring to its single microphone technique in recording music, similar to Mercury Records Living Presence series. Early on, its recordings were technically superior to most others currently in the marketplace, and the label became very popular among the growing community of audiophiles . In the late 1950s, the company began issuing some stereophonic recordings, including a rare performance of the music of Swedish composer Hugo Alfv n 1872 1960 conducted by the composer. The company was sold in the early 1960s to ABC Paramount Records , which continued to issue new material as well as reissue old material on the Westminster Gold label.
