St John's Church, Hutton Roof

Description
"The church was built in 1880–81. The architects were the Lancaster partnership of Paley and Austin. It replaced an earlier chapel built in 1757. The new church cost £2,500 (£220,000 as of 2014). The foundation stone was laid on 25 June 1880, and the church was consecrated on 9 August 1881. The vicar of the church between 1913 and 1918 was Rev Theodore Bayley Hardy. As chaplain to the British Army, Hardy was the most decorated non-combatant in the First World War, receiving the Victoria Cross, the Distinguished Service Order, and the Military Cross for the assistance he gave to the wounded."
