St Paul's Church and Centre, Norton Lees, Sheffield

St Paul's Church is a stone church building located at the intersection of Norton Lees Lane and Angerford Avenue next to Meersbrook Park in Sheffield. The interior features movable chairs instead of fixed pews, allowing the space to be arranged for different types of gatherings.

The church was built in 1877 and underwent major changes in 1935 when architect C B Flockton added broad aisles on the north and south sides. These changes allowed the building to serve a growing congregation more effectively.

The place serves the local community as a gathering space where people come together for shared activities and mutual support. Its role extends beyond worship to include practical aid and neighborhood connections.

The church is easily accessible from the nearby main roads and has direct access to the adjacent park for convenient arrival. Visitors should plan ahead as activities run on set schedules, particularly the community food support which operates on specific weekday mornings.

Between 2006 and 2007, the interior underwent substantial renovation where traditional pews were replaced with movable chairs, an unusual change that allowed the space to become multipurpose. This renovation made it possible for the building to serve different community needs while maintaining its original structure.
