St Martin's Church is a grade II listed Church of England parish church in Sherwood, Nottingham.
It was first opened in 1937 to the design of Edward Heazell in the Byzantine style. The church was consecrated by the Bishop of Southwell Re Revd Henry Mosley on 6 February 1937.[1]
The consecration of the church was overshadowed by the death of the verger and his wife. Mrs. Bradley died on Saturday 6 February 1937, and Mr. John Bradley died the day afterwards.[2]
The church provides food provisions through the Nourish Sherwood Project, Jolly Tots for Toddlers, and Bumps to Babies in midweek. Worship happens at 8:30 and 10:30 most Sundays with "Unplugged worship" at 18:00 often on the fourth Sunday of the month.
A pipe organ was installed in 1937 by Harrison and Harrison. It was originally installed in St. Luke's Church, Chelsea in 1907.
