St John the Baptist's Church, Acklam
St John the Baptist's Church is an Anglican church in Acklam, a village near Malton, North Yorkshire, in England.
Acklam had a church in the medieval period. It was rebuilt in 1790, as a small building with a nave, chancel, south porch, and square west tower. It had a capacity of 250 worshippers.[1][2] It was again rebuilt in 1868, by J. B. and W. Atkinson of York.[3] The church was declared redundant and demolished in 1972, following which its site was used to enlarge the burial ground.[4]
A Wesleyan Methodist Chapel was erected in Acklam in 1794.[1] It is a rectangular stone building, with a pantile roof. It has Gothick pointed windows, with glazing bars.[3] Following the closure of the church, it was acquired by the Anglican church, and was rededicated as a new St John the Baptist's Church.[5]
