St John the Evangelist Church, Golcar

On Saturday 13th September, we are delighted to invite visitors to our "Million" church or "Waterloo" church as we approach our Bicentenary. The 1820s were a tempestuous time in British history. It saw the building of many churches, some of which have not survived. These churches were needed to provide worship for people moving following the Industrial Revolution.
Hear about the tragic death of one of our former clergy.
Visit our Commonwealth War Graves.
We offer visits to our church, including our unique Binns organ, which will be demonstrated during the day.
A presentation of the church history, along with tours of the church will be available throughout the day. Many original documents, photographs and artifacts will be available to view.
Light refreshments will be available. Photography is encouraged - particularly of our beautiful stained glass windows.
Why not combine your visit with a visit to the nearby Colne Valley Museum?
