HISTORY:
Holy Trinity church was built in 1870-1 by subscription but much of the money came from the Rev. Y G Lloyd-Graeme of Sewerby House who also presented the church with a peal of three bells.
The total cost was £7,000 and the church could accommodate 900 people (all the sittings were free).
It became the centre of a separate parish in 1874.
The architects are not well known: Frederick Stead Brodrick (1847-1927) was the nephew of the famous architect, Cuthbert Brodrick, the designer of Leeds Town Hall. '
