Description

Baildon Moravian Church is a Moravian church built around 1868 by Samuel Jackson from Bradford. It is constructed of dressed stone and features a Welsh blue-slate roof, showcasing a simple Gothic Revival style. The north gable includes the main entrance, which has a pointed-arched doorway with inner chamfered jambs and a cusped lintel. This doorway is flanked by cusped lancet windows. Above the entrance are two plate tracery 2-light windows with trefoils at the top, set flush with relieving arches in the gable, which is coped with kneelers and topped by a bellcote. The return walls feature four bays of 2-light cusped windows with trefoils and corbelled gutter brackets. The steeply-pitched roof has four gabled vents with pierced work in the arches of the louvres.

The church is situated on a prominent hilltop site with a terraced approach and replaces a church that was built in 1806.
