St John the Evangelist, Bierley

The Church of St John the Evangelist is a Grade II* listed church situated in what is now the City of Bradford, in Yorkshire, England.

That was a misnomer in the sense that it lay not in the Bierley township, but in neighbouring Bowling; the name came from the North Bierley estate to which it was originally attached.

In the middle of the 19th century it became a parish church with the current name.

To the north of Bierley, it was built in 1766 by John Carr as an estate chapel for Richard Richardson (1708–1781) of Bierley Hall.

In 1828 and 1831 it was enlarged, when the north transept and a west porch were added.
