St John's Minster, PrestonPreston Minster – This appears to be the commonly-used name. See its own website, local newspaper, The Guardian, "A Church near You" etc. Rather than just move it myself I thought best to raise a discussion in case anyone disagreed, as it has been at this name since the article was created in 2011. NHLE calls it "Church of St John the Divine", so isn't much help.It became a minster in 2003. Note the list at Minster_(church)#Current_usage_in_England, the "Parish church (recent elevation) section, where it is piped from "Preston Minster" and most of the others in that section have article titles "XXX Minster".
