St. Paul's Church, Hyson Green is a former Church of England parish church in Hyson Green, Nottingham.

History

The church was built to designs by the architect Henry Isaac Stevens and opened in 1844 by Rt. Revd. John Kaye the Bishop of Lincoln. The chancel was added in 1889-1891[1] by the architect Gilbert Smith Doughty.

In 1994 the congregation merged with St. Stephen's Church, Hyson Green, and it closed. The building was then converted into residential accommodation by a housing association.

Organ

A two manual pipe organ was built by Charles Lloyd and opened with a recital by Henry Smart on 19 December 1865.[2]
