From a website - The present building stands on the site of what is believed to be the earliest church in Worcester, probably dating from the Roman occupation. By the time of the Second World War, the church had ceased to be used for worship and was put to various uses until, in 1956, it became the County Record Office. The church had never been declared legally redundant, and when the County Records Office was moved to new premises in 2002, its future use was again under discussion.
After more than 60 years, St Helen's Church has been returned to use as a centre of worship. The first service took place in March 2003. There are plans to continue using St Helen's for regular worship.
At present renovation work is in progress and there is no public access to the church.
Date the Church was built, dedicated or cornerstone laid: 01/01/1828
