St John's Church, Dalton

The church was constructed on the initiative of Mary Isabel Dawnay, to a design by William Butterfield, and was completed in 1868.

[1][2] The church is built of stone with a Welsh slate roof, and it consists of a nave with a south porch, a chancel with a south transept and a north vestry, and a slim west bellcote tower.

The upper stage, which is corbelled inwards, has a clock face, and it rises to become octagonal with four lancet bell openings.

There is a timber rood screen, and a reredos of marble and coloured stone.

There is a brass chandelier in the chancel, and a stone font in the nave, both designed by Butterfield.
