Church of Our Lady and St Rose of Lima, Roman Catholic church in Weoley Castle, Birmingham, England

The Church of Our Lady and St Rose of Lima features a High Altar made of Blue Horton Stone from Banbury with Italian Grey Marble details.

The construction of the church began with a foundation stone ceremony on July 18, 1959, and the building was completed on Whit Monday in 1961.

The wooden reredos above the Lady Altar displays detailed carvings created by Ferdinando Stuflesser from Ortisei in northern Italy.

The construction cost in 1961 was £75,000, which would be equivalent to approximately £2.2 million in current monetary value.
