St John the Evangelist Church, Heron's Ghyll, Gothic Revival Catholic church in Heron's Ghyll, England.
The squared Bath stone church features heavy tall single lancets, a triplet set in deep shafted reveals, and a stout tower with clasping buttresses.
In 1866, Catholic masses began in poet Coventry Patmore's home before Minna, Duchess of Norfolk, funded construction of a school and priest's house in 1880.
The building contains a marble high altar, carved stone communion rails, and stained glass representations of Our Lady and Child in the Lady Chapel.
Sunday mass services take place at 11:30 am, with additional services available at the nearby Our Lady Immaculate and St Philip Neri Church in Uckfield.
The church cost £4,000 to construct in 1897, featuring an eagle relief carving of St John above the south porch entrance.
