Description
The Church of St John is a church built in 1844 by B. Taylor, featuring coursed squared stone and a Welsh slate roof. It has a west tower with an addition to the south side, a five-bay nave, and a small chancel with a contemporary addition to the north and a 20th-century addition to the south. All openings are round arched and have hoodmoulds. The three-stage tower includes a west door, tall paired bell chamber openings, a billet moulded cornice, and four large conical pinnacles. The nave has slender windows, and the bay divisions are marked by buttresses, with corner pinnacles similar to those on the tower. The east window has two lights and a circle in the head.
Inside, there is a gallery at the rear supported by four very slender cast-iron columns, accessed from a lobby beneath the tower. The window openings are archivolted, and there are round-arched openings leading into the chancel and adjoining accommodation. The roof features low, wide trusses divided by studding and tracery.
