Background
History
St John's was a new church built in 1906–07 to replace a church of 1800 located on a different site. It was designed by the Lancaster architects Austin and Paley, and cost about £5,000 (), providing seating for 380 people. The original intention had been to build a spire on the tower but this never transpired.
