On the corner of Apsley Road and Whiteladies Road, stands the distinctive church of St John the Evangelist. The church is cruciform and orientated in reality north to south. It was designed by S.J.Hicks and built in 1841. It was enlarged by S.B.Gabriel in 1864 when the chancel was added. By 1984 it had closed and was used for a while by a local theatre group. The interior was subdivided in 1990 to create the Bristol Auction Rooms on the ground floor and a media production company in the upper part and in 2013 it was converted further and is now Mama Bear's Day Nursery.
