Church of St. John the Evangelist is an historic Episcopal church located in the village of Tannersville, part of the town of Hunter in Greene County, New York. It was built in 1885 and is a one-story, one-by-six bay structure. It is built of light frame construction atop partial fieldstone walls on a fieldstone foundation. It features a steeply pitched gable roof with a large square belfry on the ridge. It was designed by architect William Halsey Wood (1855–1897). See also: In his book The Almighty Wall: The architecture of Henry Vaughan historian William Morgan attributes this design to emigrant British architect and fellow high churchman Henry Vaughan [pages 18-19, 201], though Morgan offers no evidence for that attribution.
