The church was built in 1849–50 to a design by George Gilbert Scott. A grant of £150 () was given towards its construction by the Church Building Commission. Architecture

St John's is constructed in red sandstone rubble, and has grey slate roofs. Its architectural style is that of the late 13th century. The plan consists of a nave with a south porch and a short north aisle, a chancel with a north sacristy, and a west tower with a spire. The tower is embraced by two chambers that are not part of the aisle. The tower rises for a single stage above the nave; it has angle buttresses, triangular bell openings with tracery consisting of three circles, and a corbel table. The spire is splay-footed, with lucarnes on the cardinal sides, and clock faces on three of the oblique sides. The windows are lancets containing Geometric tracery. Inside the church is a timber three-bay arcade. At the west end is a baptistry with an octagonal font. The reredos is in stone with polished granite columns. The wrought iron screen is dated 1913. The stained glass in the east window, dating from 1880, is by Clayton and Bell. The church has an electronic organ that replaced a former pipe organ made by Harrison & Harrison. See also
