St. John the Evangelist

St. John the Evangelist is the Anglican parish church of Pembroke in Bermuda. It was established in the 1620s when it was known as Spanish Point Church, the original name for Pembroke Parish. The original church was a wooden structure with a thatched roof of palmetto leaves. It was destroyed by fire after a hurricane and rebuilt in 1721 and again in 1821.[1]

The St John's churchyard is known as Pembroke Churchyard or Pembroke Cemetery.
