History[edit]

St. Paul's Church was built between 1873 and 1874 to designs by the architect John Cundall of Leaminton.[1] It was formed from the parish of St. Mary's. The church had 1150 seats, half free, and half rented to pay the Vicar's stipend.

The church and associated parish rooms were subject to later additions and alterations. These included a redevelopment in the 1980s by architect John Holmes.
