    		None - since all places with cathedrals are cities.

    		This is not true anymore, and hasn't been the case for a number of years.
    City status is an honour granted by the Queen under the Royal Prerogative, acting on the advice of her Ministers.
    A town does not have to have a cathedral in order to achieve city status.
