| The front of the St John The Baptist Church in Flookburgh with the unusual round tower. The Church was designed by Lancaster-based architects, Austin and Paley. The foundation stone was laid in 1897 by Lady Evelyn Cavendish of nearby Holker Hall, and the construction costs, totalling £12,000, was met by Victor Cavendish. |

| The war memorial in the Church grounds. |
 |
| The Church banner. |
 |
| Another tower, a rectangular one at the rear of the Church. The main entrance can also be seen. |
 |
| The organ pipes. |
 |
| Two of the stained glass windows. All the stained glass in the Church is by Shrigley and Hunt of Lancaster, a business that can be traced back to the 1750s. The glass in the Church was added between 1901 to 1927. |

 |
| The Church is actually in Cark - just! As can be seen across the road there is a sign for the village of Flookburgh. |
