God's light on the Stratford Road
How to find us
By Car
St John's Church is situated on the A34 Stratford Road in Sparkhill. Approximately 2 miles from Birmingham City Centre and 6 miles from junction 4 of the M42. The building is set back to the east of Stratford Road at the junction with Durham and St John's Roads with Stratford Road (opposite the shop "Mighty Q")
Warning: If you are coming by car at a busy time of day allow yourself extra time as the Stratford Road can be very congested.
Car Parking
There is a car park opposite the church on St John's Road. Street parking is also available on Stratford Street (behind the church) and Shakespeare Street (access from the Warwick Road end).
By Bus
From Carrs Lane (the side of Marks and Spencers) buses numbers 5 and 6 run every few minutes. Ask for Baker Street. The bus stop is just a few meters from the church. Note that Birmingham buses don't give change so you will need coins for the fare, or you can pay by contactless bank card.
By Train
To Birmingham New Street . Then taxi or a bus from outside the Primark store.
