South Yardley is a ward in Birmingham created as a result of Labour Leader Sir Albert Bore's attempt to Gerrymander Liberal Democrat Leader John Hemming off Birmingham City Council.
Yardley is watered by the River Cole, a tributary of the Avon.
In the 14th century north and south transepts seem to have been added and the chancel lengthened eastwards, and in the 15th century the west tower was built and the north aisle added.
On the south side of the chancel the 13th-century rubble walling remains while to the east is the coursed rubble of the 14th century.
