    Default St John's Church, Howsham, North Yorkshire

    St John's is a relatively modern church, built in 1859 in the High Victorian Gothic style. It was built, at her own expense, by Hannah Cholmley, the widow of Colonel George Cholmley of Howsham Hall. The church was designed by a local architect, George Edmund Street.
