St Paul's Church, Leicester is a Grade II listed formerparish church in the Church of England in Kirby Road, Leicester, Leicestershire.[1]
The foundation stone was laid on 18 May 1870.[2] The church was built to the designs of Frederick Webster Ordish and John Charles Traylen of Mountsorrel granite, banded and interlaid with Derbyshire red gritstone, covered with Swithland grey-green slating. Stone from Box and the Forest of Dean was used in the quatrefoils of the clerestory, and the side and end windows. The windows were fitted with mosaic glass by Evans of Birmingham.
