Three for the price of one at this important holy site.

Hello and welcome to the University of Birmingham Catholic Chaplaincy.

The foundation stone of this high Victorian church was laid in October 1882, it was designed by William Knight, the architect of St Andrew’s Church, Mansfield Road, Nottingham.

Come and explore our beautiful, almost untouched, example of a medieval parish church.

This modern brick church is the post war successor to St John’s, which was destroyed by enemy fire on 8th May 1941; the altar cross which was made into a processional cross for the new church.

Nestled in beautifully maintained grounds with the Welsh hills as a backdrop and the Afon Carno gently flowing nearby, St John the Baptist is a haven of peace and tranquillity.

Visit us in beautiful Bolton Le Sands and see our Viking stone artefacts.

St Edith's dates almost entirely from the 14th century, but the tower and clerestory are from about a century later.

Although there has been a church on this site for over 600 years, the building has been altered several times and what you see today is essentially a 14th century tower with a Victorian nave and apse.
