St John the Baptist's Church, Longbridge

St John the Baptist’s Church, Longbridge is a parish church in the Church of England in Birmingham.〔The Buildings of England. Warwickshire. Nikolaus Pevsner. Penguin Books.〕
==History==

The church was designed by G H While of Bromilow, While and Smeaton. The church was consecrated in 1957 and a parish was formed from St Nicolas' Church, Kings Norton at the same time. It was built to serve the expanding car making area around the Longbridge plant.
The church is noted for five oak statues on the mullions of the west window designed by G H While and carved by the Robert Pancheri of Bromsgrove. The central figure is of St John the Baptist holding a cross, with a lamb lying on the Bible. Around him are depictions of Elijah with a raven, Isaiah with a branch, Ezekiel with a wheel and Jeremiah with a scroll.〔Public Sculpture of Birmingham. George T. Noszlopy. Liverpool University Press. 1998. ISBN 9780853236924〕
The church was used by the architect as a model for St Boniface’s Church, Quinton which was built 2 years later.
