Churches (148) : Holy Trinity, Sutton Coldfield

The church of the Holy Trinity in Sutton Coldfield dates from the 13th century though the oldest remaining part of the current church is the 15th century West tower. The church was extended in the 15th century by the Bishop Vesey, the nave was extended and two side aisles added. The Bishop's tomb is contained within the church. Wooden screens panelling inside the church were fitted in 1875 having originally been in Worcester cathedral.

Also in the 19th century, the nave roof was raised, with a steeper pitched roof built. Larger clerestory windows were also fitted.
