About Us

St. John's Church held its final service on the 19th October 2025 and has now closed. 

Reapsmoor was one of the daughter churches of Longnor, with fine views across the countryside.   The building had previously been a workhouse for the poor. In 1846 a licence for worship was given to the upstairs room, and this is when the external staircase was constructed. The schoolroom was on the ground floor and it closed in 1959. The room is now used for local events.

Extensive restoration took place in the 1890's and in 2019. The building is owned by The Peak District National Park.
