St. John in the Wilderness, Anglican church in Mallital, Nainital, India
The Neo-Gothic structure stands at the northern end of Nainital, surrounded by tall deodar and pine trees near the High Court and Manumaharani hotel.
The church cornerstone was laid in October 1846 by Captain Young, with construction costs of 15,000 rupees funded through private subscriptions and pew rents.
The brass memorial plaque on the altar lists names of 151 individuals who perished during the catastrophic landslide of September 18, 1880.
The church opens daily from 7:00 AM to 6:30 PM Monday through Saturday, and 9:00 AM to 6:30 PM on Sundays, with no entrance fee.
The cemetery contains graves dating from 1845 to 1922, including the final resting place of Jim Corbett's parents, Christopher William and Mary Jane Corbett.
