Abstract:		 Huddersfield meeting house has high significance as an early nineteenth-century meeting house of simple but refined design. The building together with the adult school have a largely intact interior with historic fittings. It has an attractive setting within the burial ground. Evidential value: The site is composed of different phases and the fabric has the potential to yield further evidence about the history of the site and a better understanding of how the buildings have changed. The headstones in the burial ground and the relocated seventeenth century headstones could extend knowledge and understanding of this historic Quaker community. The site has high evidential value. Historical value: The site has high historical significance reflecting local Quaker history since 1770. The building is historically interesting as an example of a nineteenth-century structure combining a meeting house, adult school, and whilst the stables no longer exist the mounting block is retained. Collectively the group of buildings along with the burial ground has high historical value. Aesthetic value: The exterior of the building is of modest architectural ambition with a little decoration and internally retaining some historic internal joinery. The grounds are highly attractive in the local scene. Overall, the building and site have medium aesthetic value. Communal value: The meeting house was built for Quaker use and is also a valued community resource. The building is used by a number of local groups and has a high communal value.
