Part of the Lincolnshire HODs Festival 2024

Visit Anthony Salvin’s church of St John the Evangelist and decide for yourself whether its early critics were fair or just jealous! Built in 1840-41 shortly Salvin had worked on Harlaxton Manor & had just completed the Grantham Savings Bank in Finkin Street, this church was extended in the 1880s. Salvin (1799-1881) was an architect who designed or modified hundreds of churches, stately homes as well as humbler dwellings.
