The parish church of St John the Baptist in Beeston, Nottinghamshire dates from the 13th century though has been extensively rebuilt more than once and little of the original church, which is first mentioned in 1231, survives. A font which dates from the reign of Henry III and carvings in the chancel survive from it's early days.
The church was rebuilt during the reign of Henry VIII though the current church is largely the result of a rebuilding in 1842 which was extensive and covered all areas of the church except the chancel.
