St Paul's Church, Sheffield

St Paul's Church was a Baroque-style building with an Italian tower located on the southern edge of Pinstone Lane in Sheffield. The structure accommodated around 1,200 people inside and featured an organ and decorative wooden elements throughout its interior.

Construction began in 1720 following public donations and was completed in 1721, though it was not consecrated until 1740. The building played an important role in supporting the town's growing religious needs as Sheffield expanded during the 18th century.

The church served as a gathering place for Sheffield's expanding population and reflected the importance of Anglican tradition in the town. Its interior with the organ and carved wooden elements created a space for shared worship and religious reflection.

The site is located on the southern side of Pinstone Lane and is easily accessible on foot. Today visitors can explore the Peace Gardens at this location, which now occupies the space where the church once stood.

After its demolition in 1938, the stones from the building were repurposed for constructing residential homes around Sheffield. The 1755 organ had been an important element in the musical tradition of the site during its time.
