St Michael (St Miles) Coslany, Norwich is a Grade I listed redundant parish church in the Church of England in Norwich.[1] The building is located between Oak Street and Colegate.
History
The church is noted for its remarkable display of flushwork of white stone against black flint. The south aisle retains it from the fifteenth century and was added in 1500, by Alderman Gregory Clark.
The chapel at the east end was added by Robert Thorpe as his chantry chapel. The north aisle was built by Alderman William Ramsey in 1502-04. The nave was rebuilt by the Stalon brothers in the early sixteenth century.
The south porch was demolished in 1747. A restoration was carried out in 1883 to 1884 when the flush work on the chancel was rebuilt, and a new east window added.
Organ
The church purchased an organ dating from 1887 by Norman and Beard. A specification of the organ can be found on the National Pipe Organ Register.[2] The organ was transferred to All Saints Church, Swanton Morley in Norfolk in 1970.
