NY4937 : St John the Evangelist's Church, Plumpton

taken 15 years ago, near to Plumpton, Cumbria, England

St John the Evangelist's Church, Plumpton
St John the Evangelist's Church, Plumpton
Built in 1907, by Sir Robert Lorimer, to replace a chapel of ease built in 1767. Pevsner considers it to be an excellent church. The south tower, has a very pronounced batter and its bell-openings are a stone screen of reticulation; it looks to be in the spirit of the medieval church towers that were refuges. The south porch, also has a batter, and the E wall is unusual in not having a window. Outside is a font, an octagonal baluster. One window has stained glass by Morris & Co.
