A silver disc. A child's palm. A city's gratitude.
In 1933, Birmingham silversmiths struck a medal to commemorate St Mary Redcliffe's greatest restoration. But the real story? Canon Hertslet gave them to schoolchildren – not archbishops.
Discover why, and explore 100 objects that tell our church's 800-year story.

Free organ recital today at 1:00pm. Unfortunately, pianist Luca L'Erario, who was due to be performing today, is unavailable to join us due to illness. Instead our Assistant Director of Music, Claire Alsop, will be performing on our magnificent church organ. All are very welcome!
If you've been in Redcliffe today, you may have seen some digging going on at #stmaryredcliffe. The team from @wessexarch are currently on site carrying out archeological investigations in the churchyard at either end of the church.
The purpose of the work is to look for possible locations for equipment relating to Air Source Heat Pumps and potential pipe routes for a new accessible toilet at the west end of the church.

Newly uncovered mosaic at #stmaryredcliffe where Minerva Stone Conservation are lifting a modern carpet and restoring the superb Victorian encaustic tiled floor beneath.
The floor dates from 1869 when it was installed under the auspices of the Freemasons, who paid for the chapel's restoration during the church's great Victorian Restoration.
