Former St Andrews Yeadon



Picture of the former church of St Andrew at Yeadon, Leeds.

The above photo shows a view of the former church of St Andrew on Haw lane Yeadon. St Andrews was built in 1891 in the Arts and Crafts perpendicular style by the architects Thomas and Francis Healey of Bradford. The church was built with money raised by public subscription at a cost of £3,500. The church has an unusual bell tower adjacent to the main entrance. Unusually for a church built at this period there are only two stained glass windows, one of which is a memorial to the soldiers and sailors who died in the Great War 1914-1918. I will post a photo of this I think beautifully done war memorial window sometime soon. Today this fine old building is listed as Grade II and is the New Life Community Church.
