St John the Baptist Church is a redundant Anglican church in the village of Parson Drove, Cambridgeshire, England. It is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II* listed building and is under the care of the Churches Conservation Trust (CCT). The church stands at the east end of the village, on the north side of the B1169 road, some 6 miles (10 km) west of Wisbech.

The church was originally a chapelry of Leverington parish. Its earliest substantial part, the north aisle, dates from the 14th century, although there is a north doorway surviving from the previous century. Most of the fabric of the present church is from the late 15th or early 16th century. In 1613 the chancel was destroyed by floods. The south aisle was largely rebuilt about 1800. The south wall of the south aisle was rebuilt in the early part of the 19th century. St John’s became a separate parish in 1870. Because of increasing population growth, a second church, Emmanuel Church, was built in the village in 1872. In 1895 the nave roof was reconstructed. By the later part of the 20th century, there was no need for two churches in the village, and in 1974 St John’s was declared redundant and passed to the care of the CCT.

Having stood redundant and unloved for many years the church is now fast becoming a new community hub. Locals have formed the Friends of St John group and actively raise funds for the maintenance and upkeep of the church for generations to come. Transforming it from an empty and almost forgotten space the friends group organise a busy programme of a wide variety of events and gatherings throughout the year, including various fairs and markets, live music events, craft workshops, fashion shows, quiz nights, outdoor theatres and more.
