St Barnabas' Church is in the town of Bromborough, Wirral, Merseyside, England. The church is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II* listed building,[1] and stands within the boundary of the Bromborough Village Conservation Area.[2] It is an active Anglican parish church in the diocese of Chester, the archdeaconry of Chester and the deanery of Wirral South.[3] The authors of the Buildings of England series describe it a "handsome church for a village-gone-prosperous".[4] It is considered to be a well-designed example of the work of Sir George Gilbert Scott.[1] In the churchyard are three Anglo-Saxon carved stones which have been reconstructed to form a cross.
