SE0828 : Site of former church hall, Beechwood Road, Holmfield

The crosses on the gateposts of this overgrown plot hint at a religious history.
It was the site of the John Taylor Ramsden Sunday School and church hall, belonging with the adjacent St Andrew’s church [[3701848]]. The school was erected in 1937 and named after John Taylor Ramsden https://freepages.rootsweb.com/~calderdalecompanion/history/mmr10.html#r92 who gave the money for the building of the church. It was sold in 2006 to fund an extension and reordering of the church, which itself closed in 2019. The school / hall has been demolished but the site has not been redeveloped.
