History
The church originated as Stockland Green mission room from St Barnabas' Church, Erdington in 1908.[2] In 1920 it was dedicated to St Mark, and in 1934 a new church was opened, to the designs of A T Gray. Built of brick, it is a low building with a steeply pitched roof.
In 1934 a parish was assigned with land taken from the parish of All Saints' Church, Gravelly Hill.[3]

gollark: I think many are (bleh) C++ now.
gollark: I said "it might be better not to", not "ALL NON-C GAMES ARE GARBAGE".
gollark: Older MC versions used to be sensible and still in Java, but they mucked it up because now it allocates hilarious amounts of objects for no good reason.
gollark: People *do* write games in higher-level languages, even though maybe it would be better to not do that.
