St John's Church is the parish church of Essington in the South Staffordshire district of Staffordshire, England. It is an active place of worship and is located on Wolverhampton Road. The church was built in 1932 on a three-acre site in the centre of the village of Essington, replacing the previous "Iron Church" built in 1859. The church is a Grade A locally listed building, described as "a fine example of inter-war architecture [which] shows an exuberant use of brick".
