Background

History

It was built in 1836 38 as a chapel-of-ease to St Bartholomew's Church, Edgbaston. The original building consisted of a nave and two aisles, with galleries. The architect was Joseph John Scoles. In 1856 the church was enlarged with the addition of a chancel, to a design by the architect Charles Edge. The building was transformed in 1884-5 by the addition of the existing spacious and lofty nave, chancel and south aisle by the leading Birmingham architect J. A. Chatwin. The old nave became the north aisle, and the old chancel the Lady Chapel. On 21 January 1970, it was made a Grade II listed building.
