| Brief History |
| 1837 Church erected by Rev.Richard Milner. Unfortunately he forgot to register
the church for the solemnization of marriages. This was not discovered for another 40 years so
all the marriages which had taken place there over those 40 years were illegal and invalid. It
gave rise to the saying that the people in Barnoldswick were all "living over the
brush" and is still said today. It was decided that all the marriages should be declared legal. 1851 Religious Census = Consecrated 1842 as Chapel of Ease to Gill Church 1911 Plot of land on Skipton Road to be used for a new church - the present St.James to be replaced by Holy Trinity (BWK.CE.03), but not until 1958 1960 Church closed 20.March.1960, subsequently demolished and site rebuilt with shops & offices |
