The first church to be built on this site in the early 19th Century was designated A “Chapel of Ease”within the ancient parish of Bramham. In 1851 it was Considerably enlarged and in the following year became a Parish Church Instead of a “Chapelry”. Work commenced on the present Church in 1872 And was finally completed in 1884.
