A chapel has stood on the site of St John's, it is said, since at least 1397. The memorial stone of the present church was laid on 6 November 1889 and the church was dedicated on 8 April 1891. The church was designed by George Frederick Bodley (1827-1907), one of the key figures in C19 church-building. He was a pupil of George Gilbert Scott for five years from 1845 and remained with him until he set up in independent practice in 1856. The church is Grade II* Listed.
