St Paul's Church, Stockingford, Grade II listed church in Stockingford, England.
St Paul's Church is a Grade II listed church building in Stockingford constructed from dark red handmade bricks with large diamond-pattern colored windows. The interior features a Gothic revival chancel and a decorative mosaic platform at the altar.
Construction of the church began in 1822 under architect John Russell of Leamington Spa, with consecration taking place in 1824. This early date established it as a vital community structure during the area's growth.
The church holds a place in literary history, referenced as a location in a well-known novel set in Stockingford. Visitors walking through the community can still sense this connection to the area's cultural past.
The Parish Centre next to the church handles arrangements for events like baptisms and marriages, with office hours on specific days during the week. Visitors should check ahead for current opening times when planning a visit.
A major renovation in 1995 brought new life to the building through the addition of a Parish Centre, funded by the local community and external grants. This restoration showed how a congregation worked together to give the building contemporary purpose.
