St Mary of the Angels Church, Brownshill, Romanesque Revival church in Brownshill, England.

The limestone and ashlar church features a Norman chancel arch on the eastern side and a gallery influenced by Swedish design on the western end.

Built between 1930 and 1937, St Mary of the Angels Church was designed by William Douglas Caroe as his final architectural project before his death.

The church originated from two First Aid Nursing Auxiliary members who established it as a center for spiritual healing after World War I.

The building maintains restricted access to its gallery section due to safety considerations regarding the low front barrier structure.

Three stained glass windows by Scottish artist Douglas Strachan depict the church founders and a benefactor of the religious community.
