St John the Baptist is a church in the Frenchay area of Bristol, England.

History[edit]

The foundations of the church were completed in 1834 by Henry Rumley. The work on the vestry started in 1887 and was completed by the local architect William Larkins Bernard.[1]

It has been designated by English Heritage as a grade II listed building.[2]

The large church has a low battlemented tower with a slender spire which overlooks the common.[3]

The churchyard contains the war graves of six service personnel of World War I and three of World War II.[4]
