Stamford, St John's Church c.1955

More about this scene
The church of St John the Baptist stands virtually on the other side of Red Lion Square from All Saints'. St John's is also in the Perpendicular style, and dates from c1450 when it was rebuilt by local merchants. Inside the nave carries an impressive angel roof. Despite the widening of the entrance into St John's Street in the 1930s, it is still a tight squeeze for pedestrians and vehicles alongside the church, as we can see from photograph. The lorry is parked at the entrance to Red Lion Square, giving an idea of what close neighbours St John's and All Saints are.
