Don't forget - St. Mary's Church coffee and cake mornings. On the first Saturday morning of each month from 10:00AM to 1:00PM
A Church has existed on the site since the mid C16, and the present building was erected in 1816.
The original 16th century font and a churchyard cross were broken by parliamentary forces during the Civil War, but were discovered in a nearby garden (which had belonged to one of the churchwardens at the time they were broken) at the beginning of the 20th century
The font is now in the church, and the octagonal stone post in the churchyard. The font now in use replaced the previous one in 1662.
A chest tomb in the churchyard bears the relics of Thomas Murgatroyd of Murgatroyd and East Riddlesden Hall, Keighley, who died in the mid 17th century.
There is also a listed bridge made of Ashlar Stone, constructed in 1859, leading into the municipal cemetery.
