Description:St Paul's Church was once the popular and fashionable focus for Balsall Heath and Moseley. It opened in 1853 with seating for over 1000 people but was extended in 1856 because it was still not big enough. Two church schools were established, one in Vincent St. in 1856 and one in Ladypool Road in 1862.
