Dedicated to the memory of Henry Philpott, the Bishop of Worcester 1860-1890.

From the british-history.ac.uk website :-
"The Mission Church of ST. MARY, Bishop's Wood, was presented to the parish by Bishop Philpott, who opened it in 1882. It is built in the half-timbered style of the surrounding houses, on a beautiful site overlooking the Severn. Bishop Philpott was buried in the churchyard, which was added in 1892. Archdeacon Lea presented a little silver cup said to be of 1571 for use in this church."

The Church is in the care of the Worcestershire and Dudley Historic Churches Trust. Services held once a month (possibly affected by Covid-19 restrictions)
Year: 1890
