The Story of
the Spire

Thanks to a very generous grant from the National Lottery Heritage Fund, we can restore the “at risk” spire of our beautiful building and explore the rich heritage of our church and its community.

The church of St John the Evangelist has been at the heart of the community of North Worksop since 1869. Our tall, graceful spire, which dominates the town skyline, was deemed in 2021 to be at risk and needing restoration work costing around £200,000. We started fundraising and preparing a bid for the NLHF. At the end of 2022 we were jubilant when the NLHF awarded us a grant.

We welcome you to browse through our website and maybe contribute your memories to our Heritage Project.
