Abstract: |
A meeting house built on a new site in 1961 to the design of Joseph Konrad. The building is of low heritage significance. Evidential value The building itself is wholly of the 1960s; no earlier fabric is contained in the building, which is of low evidential value. Historical value Quakerism in Beverley has a history dating back to the 1660s, but the present site was only acquired by the Quakers in about 1960 and the site and building have relatively low historical value. Aesthetic value The simple functional architecture of the building is typical of the 1960s. It is not particularly distinctive in appearance and overall is of medium aesthetic value. Communal value The meeting house appears to be well-used by the local community and has high communal value. |
