Welcome to the church of St John the Evangelist, Farsley!The Parish of St John the Evangelist is in the west of Leeds within the boundaries of the former Borough of Pudsey. The parish Church and its adjacent community hall are located in the heart of the village of Farsley, on the east side of Town Street. For centuries Farsley was served by the mediaeval parish of St Wilfrid, Calverley and, largely resulting from the poverty of the area, did not gain its own Anglican parish status and Church until 1843. The land was donated by the Thornhill Estate and contributions were made from far and wide, including from the Dowager Queen Adelaide, to enable construction. Taken from the Friends of St John's website. |

St John’s Church Farsley, connected into the grid on 2nd February, with their new array of solar panels. In this morning’s splendid sunshine the panels are doing a great job! Paul and Rosie Tudge were allowed up onto the scaffolding yesterday to see the black panels which extend neatly along the roof edge, blending in with the similarly coloured slate roof. On 17th March we shall be holding an open day at the church, 11am till 2pm, at which Phoenix Works Renewables, the company in Farsley which has installed the panels, will bring their road show to all interested in seeing solar energy at work. Bread and soup and hot drinks, courtesy of the “sun” will be served, all welcome. |
