I was certainly made to feel welcome, and I very much used to enjoy visiting the place. The worship is quite lively and the style is quite informal -- if you want incense or choral evensong this may not be the place to go! Theologically it's quite an evangelical church. If you're looking for a family-friendly church with plenty going on, this place could well fit the bill -- I'd certainly recommend it.

The church was built in 1865-6 to designs by the local Birmingham firm of Bateman and Corser, to cater for the expanding suburbs to the south west of Tettenhall village (then called Tettenhall Regis). The church consists of a very wide nave with aisles (which have unusual transverse gables) and a polygonal apse, all in the Decorated Gothic style. The exterior is rock-faced with ashlar detailing, and the windows have geometrical detailing. The church has a brand new parish room (and office) at the rear, which hosts groups during the week and parish events. Services are 08:00 and 11:00 on Sundays and 09:30 on Thursday mornings. Services are in the 'broad' style, ie it has a choir, vestments, a mix of modern and traditional music and modern language. Tea and coffee are served after the Sunday 11:00 service (which also has a crèche and Sunday school) and after the Thursday 09:30 service.

The entrance to the church is at the opposite end of the building to Church Road, if that makes sense! The building itself is fairly traditional, with perhaps enough space to seat 300 people. Never having been to a service here I can't comment on what is on offer every Sunday morning but from what I know, I am sure it is a warm, friendly place that would provide a genuine welcome for any visitors.

But inside, you find a superbly well preserved church, with a Norman tower, a nave in the transitional style of the early 1200s, and elements from the major gothic styles - Early English, Decorated and Perpendicular - represented in the aisles, transepts and chapels. But the real glory is to be found by looking out, up, and down. The windows contain an outstanding collection of mediaeval stained glass, some of it local, but most brought here from Europe in the mid-19th century. The prize goes to the 14th century Tree of Jesse window - the most complete in England - whose colours are still vibrant. But there's also important glass from Belgium, Germany (from Altenburg Abbey and Trier Cathedral) and Holland, from the 15th to 17th centuries. Look up, at the 15th-century coffered wooden roof, decorated with animals, birds and angels. And before you leave, look down at the superb collection of early Victorian encaustic tilework, beautifully restored. Covering almost the whole of the floorspace, they combine a range of vigorous geometric patterns with bold colours. Finally, in the Trinity Chapel, there's a manificent tiled reredos featuring colourful opus-sectile mosaic work. All in all, a veritable feast of pre-20th century crafts and design.
