Carrs Lane Church, Protestant church in Birmingham city center, United Kingdom.
Carrs Lane Church is a church building in Birmingham city center, completed in 1970 with a large free-standing cross. The structure houses a congregation of the United Reformed Church and remains a notable presence on Carrs Lane.
The congregation began in 1748 as an independent chapel and joined the Congregational Union in 1832. In 1972 it became part of the United Reformed Church following the closure of the nearby Methodist Central Hall.
The church displays a blue plaque honoring Dr. R. W. Dale, a minister whose work shaped the congregation and its role in the community. His legacy reflects the connection between faith and civic life in Birmingham.
The building houses a conference center that rents meeting spaces to various organizations throughout the week. The location in the city center makes it easy to reach and explore.
Today the building operates as a partnership between the United Reformed Church and a Methodist congregation. This arrangement grew out of necessity when a nearby Methodist church closed.
