St Austin's Church, Wakefield, Roman Catholic church in Wakefield, England

The Roman Catholic church features an attached parish hall with a front boundary wall, railings, and gate piers at Wentworth Terrace in Wakefield.

The Society of Jesus founded St Austin's Church in 1827, which officially opened its doors to worshippers on March 4, 1828.

The church merges with English Martyrs parish in 2008 to establish St Martin de Porres parish, strengthening Catholic presence in Wakefield.

Four Sunday Mass services and one Saturday evening service take place at St Austin's Church, with adjacent schools maintaining Catholic education connections.

The expansion in 1852 included both a church extension and a new school construction to meet the needs of an increasing Catholic population.
