Hi Rodf,

Welcome to Rootschat and Happy Christmas  :D

because of the links between church and state in England, the Church of England is also known as the "Established Church" (i.e. established in the law of the land).

If you have a copy of the complete register page then it may say at the top or at the top of the entry, the full name of the church.

Otherwise, you may find the information you need to identify the church on this link:
http://genuki.org.uk/big/eng/STS/Wednesfield/

By 1924, I would expect that the "Parish Church" for marriages would be the local CofE church in Wednesfield although, in the previous century when it was only a "chapel of ease" then the church for marriages would presumably have been St Peter's, Wolverhampton.

I hope this helps.

Thanks so much for the welcome and the quick response. 

The information and references are helpful.

Incidentally, the copy of the original marriage certificate (or extract?) simply states it to be the "Parish Church in the Parish of Wednesfield in the county of Stafford"

Hope you are having a great Christmas day.   It's actually already over here in Australia! (Now 12.45 am Boxing Day)   :'(

Regards
Rod

The main church in Wednesfield is St Thomas's, there are a number of churches near to the farm, but it looks like these were built after the marriage you are looking for.

I have just come across this thread and for those who are interested here is a picture of the Holy Trinity, Compton Rd before it was pulled down. The Quarterhouse can be seen in the background.
Also a pic of the Quarterhouse. My late father in law kept it from 1950-64 when it was a Johnson and Phipps house.

Thank you Bob, for a lovely pic of the church. It's a slightly different view, but much clearer.

Your welcome, it is one my late brother took many years ago.
The Quarterhouse used to be our local and we have spent many a happy hour in there.

Regards, Bob.
