Basilicas are big places, with deep foundations of faith. St Barnabas is no different. The faith that is fostered and nurtured here is equally as vast, broad, tall and spacious. 

Here is a place of history, prayer, inspiration and encounter. Everyone is welcome to visit and be inspired by the stunning Victorian interior, almost unique as an English parish church. Imagine you are in Ravenna, or Venice as you soak up the beauty of this church.
