Description
The Church of St John is a Grade II listed building constructed in 1874. It is built from rubble with ashlar dressings and features a Welsh slate roof. The church has a three-bay nave that includes a south porch and a southwest steeple, as well as a two-bay chancel with a north vestry.
The porch is buttressed and gabled, featuring a chamfered pointed doorway. On the nave, there is a buttress to the right and two two-light windows with Y tracery. Notably, set in the wall between the windows is a kneeler that has been reused from an earlier building, inscribed with "FJ 1801". The octagonal ashlar steeple has pointed louvred openings situated between string courses.
The chancel contains two lancet windows, copings, and gable crosses. The east window is a three-light window in the Decorated style, with a smaller opening above that resembles the head of a lancet window. The west window features two lights with Y tracery.
