Find a church

A beautiful church in the centre of West Hoathly village, with stunning stained glass windows.

Tucked away in a quiet and modest part of the village, St John's church is handsome from the outside, being built of a mixture of stone and flint, but it is the inside that makes this church the gem of this part of Dorset.

This church was built in 1888 in principally the Early English style by architect Robert Rowand Anderson who also brought in elements of Scottish design.

This beautiful little church, one of Falkirk's outstanding buildings, was designed in 1864 by Sir Rowand Anderson at the start of his illustrious career and was judged by the architectural historian, Richard Jacques, to be one of Sir Robert's first works and one of his best.

A church has stood here since Saxon times and the present St Andrew's has had many owners.
