Description

The Church of All Saints was rebuilt in 1851 for the Reverend Ayscough Fawkes, who was the rector of Leathley and lord of the manor of Farnley. It is constructed of gritstone rubble with ashlar and features a graduated thin slate roof. The church has a 5-bay nave and chancel combined, with a bellcote at the west gable and a south porch located in the second bay. The porch has a narrow Early English style arch, and the church is adorned with lancet windows that have hood-moulds. At the east end, there is a 3-light lancet window that contains some 17th-century stained glass.

Inside, there is a west gallery with a small vestry below. The Squire's family seats are located at the west end, and other pews are likely original as well. The roof is supported by slender roll-moulded upper crucks. A portion of the north wall of a 13th-century chapel that once stood on the site remains, with most of the wall stones having been reused in the 1851 restoration. The stained glass includes heraldic panels by Henry Gyles of York, which were transferred from Hawksworth Hall to Farnley Hall and then to the church during its restoration. Additionally, there is a drawing by J.M.W. Turner at Farnley Hall depicting the glass in a window there. Further information can be found in H. Speight's book, "Upper Wharfedale," published in 1900.
