Stained glass in the south transept by Jean Baptiste Capronnier of Brussels, 1883.
St Peter's was the ancient parish church of Harborne, long before it became absorbed into Birmingham's suburbs. Unfortunately little remains of the medieval building, just the 15th century red sandstone west tower. The rest of the church is Victorian rebuilding by H.R.Yeoville Thomason (architect of Birmingham Art Gallery and Council House, but on a much tighter budget here!) and dates from 1867.
The stained glass comprises the 1860s apse windows by John Hardman Studios, two windows by J.B.Capronnier of Brussels in the transepts and a 1980s south aisle window by F.Skeat.
The church is normally kept locked outside of services but is open to visitors on Summer Thursdays 1-3pm.
