St Swithun's Church, Worcester, Anglican church in Worcester, England

The church features a four-stage tower with diagonal buttresses, round-headed windows separated by Doric pilasters, and a three-bay east end with a Venetian window.

The structure incorporates a 15th-century tower and underwent reconstruction between 1734 and 1736 under the direction of architects Thomas and Edward Woodward.

The interior contains a three-decker pulpit decorated with a gilded pelican, traditional box pews, and a historic organ built by Gray Brothers of London in 1795.

The building stands near Worcester Foregate Street railway station and includes level access entrances with facilities for visitors with reduced mobility requirements.

The church maintains a ring of six bells, with three cast locally in 1420 and three additional ones from 1654, plus an unused bell from 1720.
