[edit] St. John the Evangelist Church
The village church was designed by Bassett Keeling of London, and is faced with local stone, with bands of pink sandstone from a local quarry. It stands in beautiful grounds in the old village of Killingworth, surrounded by elm and sycamore trees. It is a popular church ministering to a wide age-group and particularly welcoming to young families.
