The Church of St. John the Baptist, Newport is a parish church in the Church of England located in Newport, Isle of Wight. It is a Grade II listed building,[1] the only surviving building by the British architect Robert Gunter Wetten (1804–1868).[2]
History
Construction started in 1835. The building, at the junction of St. John's Road and Terrace Road, was complete by 1837.[3] It cost £3,600 and had 830 seats.
It was consecrated on 4 April 1837 by Charles Sumner, Bishop of Winchester.[4]
Originally it was a daughter church within the Parish of Carisbrooke, and known as St John's Church, Carisbrooke. It became a parish church in its own right in 1896, by order of the Privy Council. It is now part of a joint parish with Sts Thomas Minster, St Mary's, Carisbrooke and St Olave's, Gatcombe[5]..
Organ
An organ was provided when the church opened in 1837, which was later replaced by a pipe organ by Bryceson Brothers dating from 1890. A specification of the organ can be found on the National Pipe Organ Register.[6]
