Blackbird Leys church may finally be demolished

A CAMPAIGN group who previously fought to save Blackbird Leys Grade-II listed church have now said they will agree to the its demolition if public benefit ‘outweighs’ its loss. The Church of the Holy Family in Blackbird Leys first revealed plans to update their building, with new space to rent and flats to sell, in 2018. The church, built in 1965, is Grade-II listed due to its unusual heart-shaped plan, intricate interior and timber roof. Since the planning application was put forward in 2018, several campaign groups have objected to its demolition. Recent reports, however, revealing the cost of replacing the roof, which is currently leaking, have caused some campaigners to say that public benefit of a new church and living space could outweigh its preservation.
