St John the Baptist's Church, Guilden Sutton

The brick structure features a five-bay nave, chancel, south porch, and an octagonal louvered timber bellcote at the western end of the building.

Built in 1815 to replace a previous church that suffered damage, with the chancel collapsing in 1802, the building incorporates materials from the 16th-century structure.

The church maintains regular Anglican services and community gatherings, connecting local residents through religious ceremonies and social activities throughout the year.

Located at coordinates 53.2078 latitude and -2.8265 longitude, the church underwent restoration in 2001, adding modern facilities and improving accessibility.

The churchyard contains a Grade II listed buff sandstone sundial from 1596, mounted on a column baluster with a square base.
