Our Church Building and Heritage

St. John the Baptist Church - “The Church the Locks”

Early records suggest that there has been a church on this site since the 12th Century, consisting of a chancel and aisleless nave. The Church was endowed by the de Astley family. Of the original church nothing above ground remains standing, but some of the original stone may have been used in the later rebuilding.
