St Mark’s Church, Stockland Green is a Church of England parish church in Birmingham.[1]

History

The church originated as Stockland Green mission room from St Barnabas' Church, Erdington in 1908.[2] In 1920 it was dedicated to St Mark, and in 1934 a new church was opened, to the designs of A T Gray. Built of brick, it is a low building with a steeply pitched roof.

In 1934 a parish was assigned with land taken from the parish of All Saints' Church, Gravelly Hill.[3]
