Some views of Stirchley Church of the Ascension. Construction was completed in 1901[2] and it was consecrated by the Bishop of Coventry on 30 October 1901. On 29 October 1965, the Church was destroyed by fire and was demolished.

Surviving features from the church (some of the stained glass, the Stations of the Cross, the altar silver, the processional crosses and the vestments) were used in the new church built next to St Hughes. St. Hugh's became the church hall for the replacement Church of Ascension.
