St John the Baptist's Church is a redundant Anglican church in the village of Stanwick St John, North Yorkshire, England. It is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade I listed building, and is under the care of the Churches Conservation Trust. The site of the church is recognised as a Scheduled Monument, and it stands within the earthworks of Stanwick Camp, a settlement originating in the early Iron Age.

Stanwick Iron Age Fortifications (also known as 'Stanwick Camp'), a huge Iron Age hill fort, sometimes but not always considered an oppidum, comprising over 9 kilometres (5.6 mi) of ditches and ramparts enclosing approximately 300 hectares (740 acres) of land, are situated in Richmondshire, North Yorkshire, England. Whether Stanwick was the stronghold of Venutius or Cartimandua, or perhaps of them both for a brief time before their acrimonious split some time after 51 AD, it is certain that this settlement was one of the most important in Brigantia, the Brigantes kingdom during the early stages of the Roman occupation of Britain. The site is a scheduled monument.

St Paul's Church is the parish church of Aldbrough St John, a village in North Yorkshire, in England. Aldbrough was recorded in the Domesday Book as having a church, but that is believed to be the forerunner of St John the Baptist's Church, Stanwick. A chapel was built in the village of Aldbrough itself in about 1200, but the church at Stanwick remained the parish church, and its dedication was later appended to the name of the village. St Paul's Church was constructed in 1890, as a chapel of ease to the church at Stanwick. It was designed by William Searle Hicks, and funded by Eleanor Percy, Duchess of Northumberland. The church was Grade II listed in 1969, and finally became the parish church in 1990. The church is designed in the Early English style. It is built of sandstone rubble, with a slate roof. It has a three-bay nave, with a south porch, and a two-bay chancel, with a choir and a vestry. The west gable is surmounted by an octagonal bell turret and spirelet. The windows are lancets, sometimes paired, and tripled at the east end.
