Report - Denholme Gate Church, Denholme, June 2014

[Leeds(Ex)plorer]

So I dun an explore t'other day, drove past wit girlfriend and noticed it looked pretty shitty for a church so popped in

Found this news article from 2012 saying some council bloke was outraged at the state of it, well it seems Mr Council Bloke had no push whatsoever and everyone ignored him and the church so little has changed tbh which is a shame

?Shocking? state of vandalised Denholme Gate church (From Bradford Telegraph and Argus)

I've not bothered editing the shots but in the spirit of maintaining my 1 explore per year I figured they'd do

Crack on

So there we are, I'll see you all again next year

It's nice this. I spent ages checking it before it finally ended up open and then never went back..

What's the place over the road looking like now?

Cheers mate, worth a look if your passing but I wouldn't head out just for this

I didn't notice anything derelict over the road but I'm in the area loads now so I'll go have another look

Nice one, the amount of times we looked at this until it opened!

The thing over the road was some window manufacturer and was derp for some time. On the day me and George flapped into the church a couple of years ago we had a prod around it with no luck. Shortly after it was refurbed and converted into shared workshop / office space.
