Abstract: |
The meeting house was created in 1995, in part of a building dating from the late 1960s. This was built for the Unitarians in the garden of an adjacent house used as a meeting house between 1951 and 1995. The meeting house building has low heritage significance, but contributes to Little Horton conservation area. It represents the latest in a series of Quaker meeting houses in Bradford. Evidential value: As a relatively modern building, meeting house has low significance for evidential or archaeological value. Historical value: The meeting house has low significance for historical value, as a modern building, but it does reflect the long history of Quakers in Bradford; the previous meeting house was on the adjacent site. Aesthetic value: The 1969 structure is a modest building designed in a traditional form using local stone; it fits well into the conservation area. Communal value: The meeting house is valued by the community and expresses the presence and work of Quakers in Bradford. It has high communal value. |
