| St. Paul's Church |
St. Paul’s Church was designed by John Forbes, the famous architect of Cheltenham’s Pittville Pump Room in 1827 for the artisans congregation of this area.
This Greek Revival style building with a columned façade and cupola tower was built under the leadership of the Rev. Francis Close as a free church and paid for by voluntary subscriptions where unlike in other churches seats did not have to be paid for. Joseph Pitt, the developer of Pittville Estate, donated the plot of land. The ecclesiastical parish of St. Paul's was formed in 1846. The north chapel was added in 1932. Its stained glass comes from 1963. |
