| 説明 | Longbridge Parish Church - Longbridge Lane and Turves Green, Longbridge.There was roadworks on Longbridge Lane (including on the pavement) meaning the pedestrian diversion went over the grounds of Longbridge Parish Church.I then headed down Turves Green (on the no 47 bus route).The foundation stone on Turves Green was laid in 1956.The weather was a bit dull and was lightly raining.St John the Baptist's Church, LongbridgeSt John the Baptist's Church, Longbridge is a parish church in the Church of England in Birmingham.The church was designed by G H While of Bromilow, While and Smeaton. The church was consecrated in 1957 and a parish was formed from St Nicolas' Church, Kings Norton at the same time. It was built to serve the expanding car-making area around the Longbridge plant.The church is noted for five oak statues on the mullions of the west window designed by G H While and carved by the Robert Pancheri of Bromsgrove. The central figure is of St John the Baptist holding a cross, with a lamb lying on the Bible. Around him are depictions of Elijah with a raven, Isaiah with a branch, Ezekiel with a wheel and Jeremiah with a scroll.The church was used by the architect as a model for St Boniface's Church, Quinton which was built 2 years later. |
