One of the oldest Catholic churches in Bristol and part of the [[Roman Catholic Diocese of Clifton]], it was built in large part to cater for Irish refugees from the Great Famine arriving in Bristol in the late 1840s. It was built in stages between 1850 and 1873 from designs by Charles Hansom. The church was dramatically reordered and extended in 2006-7.<ref></ref>
