St Mary's Church is a Grade II listed parish church in the Church of England in Pype Hayes, Birmingham, England.[1]

History

The church was designed by the architect Edwin Francis Reynolds in 1927[2] and constructed between 1929 and 1930. The builders were C. Bryant and Son and the cost was £20,415. The funding for the construction came from the sale of the site of St Mary's Church, Whittall Street, Birmingham.

The red-brick church and its hall were jointly given listed status in October 1995.[3]

Organ

The church contains an organ dating from 1900 by Nicholson and Lord. A specification of the organ can be found on the National Pipe Organ Register.[4]
