St John's Church, Adlington

St John's Church, Adlington
Originally known as the Adlington Mission Church, St John's church on Brookledge Lane, Adlington, Cheshire is also known as the tin tabernacle. It was built in 1892 at a cost of £150 with the kit probably supplied by Francis Norton & Co., Liverpool. The walls are corrugated iron, lined with pitch pine. The vestry came as an optional extra and has since been extended.

The church originally had a small spire which housed a single bell. At a later date the spire was dismantled and the bell was moved to its current turret above the porch.
