The stunning church by Bartley Green Reservoir
The church dates from the 15th century. It was altered around 1751 when the wooden tower was rebuilt in stone, restored in 1873 and there were other alterations and additions 1931 – 1932 by Bateman. There was another restoration in 1947 following a fire.
The tower main arch has a hood mould with head stops depicting King George V and Queen Mary.
The building is constructed from sandstone in a red and grey colour, until 1965 the tower contained two bells.[2] A new church hall was constructed in 2005

The ornate building on the left was built between the two wars - it appears to have been a church for a short time but maps from the 1950s onwards show it as being used as a warehouse.
