St John the Evangelist's Church, Kirkham, Gothic Revival church in Kirkham, England
The sandstone exterior of St John the Evangelist's Church displays detailed architectural elements with a prominent Mansard roof and a carefully designed gateway.
Augustus Pugin completed the construction of St John the Evangelist's Church in 1845, replacing an earlier chapel that stood at The Willows since 1809.
The church maintains a collection of six bells cast in 1844, marking one of the first complete sets installed in an English Catholic church after the Reformation.
The church records, including baptisms from 1775 and marriages from 1837, are available for research at the Lancashire Record Office.
The building features an 1846 two-manual pipe organ that continues to function after multiple repairs throughout its extensive service period.
