St John's Church, Silverdale, Gothic Revival parish church in Silverdale, United Kingdom.

The church structure showcases local grey limestone walls with buff sandstone dressings and features a distinctive red tile roof with multiple bays.

Built between 1884 and 1886 by Manchester architects Ball and Elce, this church replaced an earlier chapel that was converted into a mortuary.

The interior sandstone work by J.J. Millson includes detailed carvings depicting angels and scenes from the Book of Revelation throughout the church.

The church maintains regular services, including a Thursday morning Holy Communion at 10:30, following the Book of Common Prayer traditions.

In 2013, the church installed a 6-meter by 2.5-meter glass screen called Revelation, designed by Sarah Galloway to reduce drafts.
