St Barnabas' Church, Bromborough, Grade II* listed Anglican church in Bromborough, England.
St Barnabas Church is a Gothic Revival building made of red sandstone with a slate roof, constructed between 1862 and 1864. The structure includes a nave, upper windows for light, and a tower topped with a pointed spire.
A church has stood on this site since 928, next to what was once a monastery founded in 912. The current building was designed and constructed by the renowned architect George Gilbert Scott.
The interior displays carved wooden features and decorative elements from 1900 that shape how the space feels when you walk through it. These furnishings reflect the craftsmanship that defined church design during that period.
The tall red sandstone tower with its pointed spire makes the building easy to spot from a distance. Visitors can enter through the main entrance, though it is worth checking service times before planning a visit since the building functions as an active parish church.
Three stone fragments from the 10th century stand in the churchyard, reassembled as a Celtic cross by the Bromborough Society in 1958. This reconstruction shows how a local group worked to preserve pieces of early history.
