'''City status in the United Kingdom''' is granted by the monarch. Until the 19th century, city status was associated with the presence of an [[Anglican]] [[cathedral]], an association that arose in the time of [[Henry VIII]]; cities with cathedrals are often referred to as '''cathedral cities'''. Unlike many other countries, cities do not have to meet specific size criteria.
