Cotham Church (grid reference ST584739) is a Gothic Revival style church in Cotham, Bristol, England.

History

Cotham Church was originally built in 1842 and completed in 1843 by William Butterfield. Once built it became Highbury Congregational chapel.

The churches apse, tower, south transept and school were added in 1863 by Edward William Godwin. The large stone low in the enclosing wall along Cotham Road is part of Bewell's Cross, which marked the boundary of the city until the nineteenth century.

In 1975, the Church of England had purchased it and has been known as the Cotham Parish Church.

It has been designated by English Heritage as a grade II* listed building.
