This is a photograph of the Parish Church of St Edmund King & Martyr, Castle Street.

This is Dudley's original Parish Church, its dedication to an Anglo-Saxon saint indicating its pre-Norman Conquest foundation.

A larger Gothic church that stood on this site was demolished by Col Leveson, the royalist commander of the castle to deny use of the tower to the besieging Parliamentary army during the English Civil War (1642-1652)

The church was rebuilt in 1724 in a plain Georgian style.

The other picture by Alan Todd, of a stone church is incorrectly identified as St Edmund's. Alan's picture is of St Chad's Roman Catholic Church, Coseley.
