History
The church was built between 1900 and 1901 to designs by the architect V.S. Peel, as a chapel of ease to St Barnabas' Church, Erdington. It was enlarged in 1918 by William Bidlake.
In 1928 the church was consecrated, and in 1929 a parish was assigned out of St Barnabas' Church, Erdington and St Peter and St Paul's Church, Aston.[2]
In 1934, part of the parish was taken to form a new parish for St Mark's Church, Stockland Green.

gollark: Hmm, it seems to be cut off in the picture, but there's a "107" in the corner.
gollark: Apparently I have 107 tabs open now. I should really do something about this.
gollark: I mean, IIRC they've also at times somehow dumped people into "transporter buffer" storage.
gollark: We definitely, at least, live in a time you could consider more *interesting* than previous ones.
