Open Day & Hard Hat Tours - Lancaster

Church of St John the Evangelist, Lancaster, Lancashire

Enjoy a special behind the scenes peek into St John's, currently closed for conservation

St John's is a Lancaster landmark, but now this Grade II* listed building is under threat. Dry rot is spreading through the structure, leaving devastation in its wake. If we don't act soon to stop the spread, this jewel of Lancaster's Golden Age could be lost for ever.

As part of Church Tourism Week 2018, enjoy a rare opportunity to drop into St John's and hear about the Stop The Rot campaign which aims to save this historic building. Admire the priceless, locally-made Gillows furniture, learn about the history of the church, and don a hard hat for a special tour.
