St Andrew's Church

St Andrew's Church is an Anglican church in Handsworth built with red and blue brick, stone dressings, and a slate roof. A large five-light window in Decorated style marks the west front of the building.

The church began in 1894 as a mission church called the Good Shepherd. Architect William Bidlake designed the present building completed in 1907.

The parish gathers here for worship and community events that shape life in the neighborhood. These regular meetings form an important anchor for local connection in Handsworth.

Sunday services take place on weekday mornings and offer the neighborhood regular worship opportunities. The building sits in an accessible location within a residential area of Handsworth.

The choir performs classical and modern works during services in traditional vocal arrangement. The chancel holds distinctive arcading that connects to the Good Shepherd Chapel on the north side.
