Heritage fund
The congregation of St Edmund, King & Martyr, are delighted to announce the end of the first phase of works to our 1724 Grade 2* church has been completed and a Project Evaluation has been presented, submitted and accepted by the National Heritage Lottery Fund. Our thanks to everyone for the help and guidance have received from inception to completion.
Congratulations to HLF for 25 years work, and we welcome the new logo which we will be proudly displaying for all to see.
As well as a place of worship, we have been an important part of Dudley Town centre for hundreds of years, and welcome casual visitors or groups for organised tours.
