Church of Saint John of Beverley

The Church of Saint John of Beverley is a Grade I listed church located in Harpham. It dates back to the 12th century, with a nave from that period, an early 14th-century chancel, and a late 14th-century west tower and north chapel. The chancel east window was designed by Temple Moore in 1909. The building features ashlar stonework, with brick used at the chancel's east end, the nave eaves, and the south porch, all topped with lead roofs.

The church has a three-stage west tower, a three-bay nave with a south porch, a two-bay chancel, and a north chapel. The tower includes a triple-chamfered plinth, angle buttresses with offsets, and string-courses. It has a small square-headed window on the second stage and pointed belfry openings with Y-tracery. The west window is pointed and double-chamfered, featuring Perpendicular tracery. The nave has a small round-headed window on the west side and two 2-light windows with Reticulated tracery under square heads on the east side. The chancel has a chamfered plinth and diagonal buttresses, with two 2-light windows featuring Reticulated tracery under square heads, and a square-headed priest's door. The east window consists of three lights with ogee tracery set in an obtuse pointed arch beneath a hood-mould.

Inside, the nave contains a west gallery supported by four octagonal piers, with a parapet featuring raised and fielded panels. An earlier window's east jamb is partly concealed in the south wall. There is an 18th-century pulpit with plain panels. The chancel includes a tomb recess in the north wall with a cusped ogee opening and a stopped crocketed hood-mould. An alabaster tomb chest with a lid displays inscribed figures of William de St Quintin and his wife from 1349, with sides featuring quatrefoil panels containing shields and flanking a crucifix. The north wall has a memorial by J Wilton to Charlotte de St Quintin, who died in 1762, depicting a grieving angel with an urn under a pediment enriched with egg-and-dart.

In the north chapel, there is a notable brass for Sir Thomas de St Quintin from 1445 and another for Sir Thomas de St Quintin and his wife from 1418. Additionally, there is an effigy of a lady from the early 14th century and a wall memorial to Sir William de St Quintin from 1649, which features Composite colonnettes supporting a broken pediment with a hatchment.
