The church has a rather complicated history: originally some staff and pupils of Clifton College decided to found a public school mission in the parish of St Barnabas in 1875. A new church was demanded and W. Wood Bethel designed this Grade II listed church in Decorated Gothic Revival style, which was consecrated on 2nd March, 1886. Other churches in the area started to falter and so the work was carried over to St Agnes, leading to the modern title (sometimes used) of St Agnes and St Simon with St Werburgh, and St Paul's with St Barnabas. The church is also the St Paul's Centre.
