History
Cotham Church was originally Highbury Congregational Chapel, built in 1842 and completed in 1843. The architect was William Butterfield and this was his first commission, obtained through his family's connection with William Day Wills of the tobacco firm W. D. & H. O. Wills.[1][2] The exact site seems to have been chosen in part because its association with the 'Marian Martyrs' who were burned to death for heresy on the site during the 1550s. There is a memorial to them on the exterior north wall of the church.
The church's apse, tower, south transept and school were added in 1863 by Edward William Godwin.[1] The large stone low in the enclosing wall along Cotham Road is part of Bewell's Cross,[3] which marked the boundary of the city until the nineteenth century.[1]
It has been designated by English Heritage as a Grade II* listed building.[2]
