St Johns Church was built by the Normans and retains architectural features from this time and later periods. As well as original brasses and monuments, it also contains several artefacts from the excavations at nearby Lesnes Abbey. As an ancient parish church its story echos that of the local area, especially the Lords of the Manor of Erith.
