1879 – Former Church of St. John the Evangelist, Mold, Flintshire

Architect: John Douglas

0044

St John the Evangelist’s Church is now redundant as a church and has been sub-divided as a church hall. The church was built in the Arts and Crafts Gothic style and constructed of random squared rubble with red Helsby dressings, and with steep red tile roofs with toothed ridge; plain verges, exposed rafters at eaves, and two iron crucifixes to the ridge. As built, the plan comprised three-bay chancel (with raked, angled buttresses), five-bay aisleless nave, short north transept for vestry, in the basement of the (intended) tower, double transept for organ chamber, and south porch. Perspective including ground plan published in The Building News, April 18th 1879.
