St John the Evangelist's Church, Perry Barr, Anglican parish church in Perry Barr, Birmingham, England.
St John the Evangelist's Church is an Anglican parish building featuring a single nave with two transepts and a tower. The structure displays stained glass windows throughout, and a clock mechanism from 1838 is housed within the tower.
The building was designed in 1831 by Robert Studholme and consecrated by Bishop Henry Ryder in 1833. It was established as a center for worship during a period of expansion in the Perry Barr area.
The church serves as a focal point for local worship, drawing people who value traditional Anglican practices and community gathering. It remains woven into the rhythm of neighborhood life as a space for prayer and reflection.
The building sits in a residential neighborhood and can be viewed from outside or visited during open times. It is easily located from the street and accessible from the surrounding pavements.
The church bells date from 1776 and were rescued from another building that suffered damage during World War II. They were installed here only in 1972, making them newcomers to the tower despite their age.
