Other Useful Information

All Hallows Church, Harthill

Little is know of the history of the church but in the Fifteenth Century it was massively extended. A chancel, tower, north and south aisles and chapels were added at this time. In the Seventeenth Century the north chapel was used as a mortuary chapel by the family of the Duke of Leeds. The gauntlets and funeral pall of the Duke are on display. Parts of the church were rebuilt in 1850 and 1897.
