St John's began as the Church of England parish church in 1915, completed in 1966; the nearby Methodist congregation moved in in the 1980's, and the worship and administration of the church have been joint since the mid-1990's.
Built: 1914/1970
The building is of two major phases of construction and dates from 1914 with a later extension constructed at the west end of the building which dates from the 1970s.
The church building comprises nave, chancel and sanctuary, north and south aisles and a suite of vestries to the north east which also includes access up to a proposed tower at the north east corner which was never constructed.
At the west end of the building, accommodation has been inserted very successfully to provide a gallery with offices and meeting rooms, kitchens and toilets beyond.
Most of the above came from various sources on the web.
Year of construction: 1914
