St. John's Church, Kidderminster, Grade II listed church building in Kidderminster, England.
St. John's Church stands on Bewdley Road and displays Victorian architectural features with a bell tower and ornate stained glass windows. The interior was expanded from 1972 onwards with modern spaces including offices, a refectory, and a children's room integrated into the original structure.
The building was constructed in 1843 by architect George Alexander and earned the local nickname 'Black Church'. The structure underwent major reconstruction between 1892 and 1904.
The church serves as a gathering place for religious services and community activities in the Kidderminster area. Visitors notice how the interior is used regularly for worship and local events that bring people together.
The location is easily accessible from Bewdley Road and the bell tower is clearly visible from outside. Plan your visit around service times or public events, as the building is primarily used for religious and community purposes.
The church clock was manufactured by Henry Knight of Birmingham around 1828. This timepiece was relocated from St. Mary's Church to St. John's in 1856.
