Hello Jamys
I'm afraid St.Andrews is no more.It was declared redundant in 1985.The church may still be standing but used for some other purpose.I'll have a look and see if I can see it.

It stood in St.Andrews Rd. but the area has now been redeveloped for residential & industrial use.

I have quite a lot of information on this church, including postcards and newspaper articles. My grandfather was in charge of the workforce who restored it in 1933. I would be prepared to send you one of the 3 identical postcards - they show the west wall and the north wall - and I could send copies of other photos and the articles. I realise this comes a long time after the original post but I've been searching for information about this church and have only just discovered this forum.

Hi,  I have been searching for a photo of St Anrews's Church, Bordesley for my family tree records as several of my ancestors married there. Whilst searching the internet I came across your request for the same.
Can I be cheeky please and ask whether you have had any luck. If so, could you possibly point me in the right direction please and let me know where I may obtain one from.
With many thanks,
Jan.

This may help locate the former site of St. Andrews.  My great grandfather's brother was married there in 1894.
