St Michael's Church, New Arley
The Arley Colliery Company began mining coal locally in 1905. In the 1920s it built a company village of six hundred houses, called New Arley, and, in 1928, a company church to serve it, the Church of England parish church of St Michael. The style could perhaps be called colliers' baroque. See the Victoria County History of Warwickshire, Vol. 6 pp8-12, which doesn't give the name of the architect https://www.british-history.ac.uk/vch/warks/vol6/pp8-12 .

Catholic church of St Joseph, New Arley
The church stands at the western end of the former mining village, an area known as Gun Hill or Spring Hill. It was built in 1996 to designs by John D Holmes. It replaced a nearby timber church of the 1920s. See the Taking Stock site, which describes the new church as 'flexible in character and modest in architectural aspiration.' https://taking-stock.org.uk/building/arley-st-joseph/
