The following is from John Mayhall’s ‘Annals of Yorkshire’ vol 1 published in 1861:-September 22 1824. “September 22nd, was laid the first stone of St. John’s church, at Roundhay, which was founded and endowed by Stephen Nicholson, Esq., in whom and his heirs the patronage is vested for ever by a special act of parliament, obtained in the 5th of George IV.”.
