Codsall Church

St Nicholas' Church stands at the northern end of the village in surroundings that retain a rural feel despite the extensive development elsewhere in Codsall. The building is mostly Victorian built between 1846 and 1848 to a design by local architect Edward Banks. At that time, with the coming of the railway, Codsall was beginning to develop as a residential area and became a separate ecclesiastical parish in 1847. Some features of the old church were retained, notably the Norman south doorway and the 14th century tower (given as 13th century on the church's own website).
