Parish Church of St Peter and St Paul, Witton Lane, Birmingham - Birmingham

The original Anglican church dates from 1084, although nothing survives. The current large church dates from 1879-90, the west tower from cr. C15, repaired in 1776. The south porch by J. A. Chatwin was added in 1908. The church is built in soft Hollington sandstone, which is very poor in places with open joints. The spire weight and tie need addressing, as do the rainwater goods throughout. Internally the timber block flooring is subject to rot and insect infestation and need replacing.
