Title
St Ambrose Barlow Church - Home
Description
in the early 1960's Fr Thomas Foynes - the Parish priest of Holy Souls in Acocks Green - was asked by Archbishop Grimshaw to explore the possibilities of establishing a School and Mass centre in Hall Green with a view to forming a parish.
The allotments next to Lakey Lane School provided the site for the first church and in 1970 a multi-purpose building to be used as a Church and Church Hall, together with a flat was used for the first time as a Mass Centre.
The Church was served from Our Lady of Lourdes nearby by Fr Denis O'Shea and his curate Fr Tom Fallon (now Mgr) to whom day to day responsibility was given.
