Our Lady of the Sacred Heart is a Roman Catholic parish church at 82 Knox Road in Wellingborough, Northamptonshire, east of the town centre. It remains an active place of worship and shares its parish with St Edmund Campion Church in Wellingborough. The church is protected as a Grade II listed building.
A Catholic mission began in Wellingborough in 1869, with financial support from the Arkwright family of Knuston Hall. Services were initially held in rented premises. The site was acquired in several stages between 1873 and 1882, and London architect Samuel Joseph Nicholl received the commission for the church in 1884. Constructed between 1884 and 1886 in the Gothic Revival style, it opened on 2 September 1886 and cost £5,281. A presbytery followed in 1893–94, at a cost of £1,558.
