Description
The Roman Catholic Church of St John of Beverley, built between 1897 and 1898 by Smith, Brodrick and Lowther, is designed in the Gothic Revival style. It features red and brown brick with ashlar dressings and banding, topped with a Welsh slate roof.
The church has a continuous five-bay nave and chancel, with a canted east end and a south chapel. At the west end, there is a single-storey porch that serves as a passage. The entrance is Tudor-arched, with a statue of St John positioned in a niche above. The windows are flat-arched with traceries, and above them are a pair of three-light basket-arched windows adorned with decorated tracery and crowned with crocketed ogee gables. A statue of the Virgin and Child is set in a niche on the gable, and to the left, there is a bell tower. The nave and chancel contain two-light Tudor-arched windows with flush tracery in the Decorated style, and an oculus is located at the east end.
Inside, the church features a gallery and an organ loft at the west end, along with a timber purlin roof.
