St Luke's Church, Bristol Street, Birmingham is a former parish church in the Church of England in Birmingham now used by the Redeemed Christian Triumphant Church of God.〔The Buildings of England. Warwickshire. Nikolaus Pevsner. p.149. Second Edition. 1966. Penguin Books Limited〕 ==History== The first building on the site was erected in 1842 by the Birmingham Church Building Society, to designs of the architect Harvey Eginton. The church was consecrated on 28 September 1842 by Henry Pepys, the Bishop of Worcester.〔Coventry Herald. 30 September 1842. P.3. Birmingham〕 The exterior stonework was poor quality, and the building eroded quickly. By the end of the nineteenth century it was condemned and demolished. Land was taken from the parish to form the parish of St David's Church, Highgate in 1866. A replacement was built in brick on the same site designed by local architect Edward Mansell and opened in 1903. The building was sold by the Church of England in 2003 and acquired by the Redeemed Christian Church of God. The Church of England congregation built a new church on the Attwood Green estate. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「St Luke's Church, Bristol Street, Birmingham」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
