We are currently carrying out further research into the history of the building. The following reflects the best information which we had at the time of writing, and is therefore subject to change as our research continues.
Read here about some of our latest findings.



St. Paul's was built under an act of 1774, designed by Roger Eykyn of Wolverhampton, with Samuel Wyatt of London as consultant, who also designed the fine altar-piece. Francis Eginton, who was originally employed by Matthew Boulton as a glass painter, made the fine East window - the 'Conversion of St Paul' - 1789, copying a painting commissioned for the purpose by Benjamin West, the President of the Royal Academy. This window was Eginton's best and most renowned work.
