The church is Grade II listed by the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport as it is a building of special architectural or historic interest.

History

It was first opened in 1843 to a design by William Surplice. The chancel was added in 1866 - 1877 by Jackson & Heazell. The north aisle was added in 1922.

When the spire of Holy Trinity Church, Trinity Square was removed by October 1942 [1] stones from the spire were used in the new drive at St John's when the entrance from Mansfield Road was walled up and a new drive created from Church Drive. Other stones were incorporated into a wall on the Carrington Lido side of the churchyard. [2]

A specification of the organ can be found on the National Pipe Organ Register. [3]
