Oakleaf Puzzle 6

This splendid piece of Victorian Gothic Revivalry is called a Tympanum.

There is a cluster of oakleaves if you can tell me which building in the borough it might be attached to.

Very nicely marked stone by the way - Longridge Sandstone I wonder?

The sharp-eyed Tinkerbelle claims the prize on this one, it is indeed St John's, just off Burnley Road. Well Done!
