Abstract: |
Statement of Significance The Pardshaw meeting house complex includes the meeting house of 1729, stables of 1731 and school room of 1745. With the burial ground, the place has high heritage significance as a fine example of a meeting house developed in the first half of the eighteenth century, and associated with early Quakerism in rural West Cumbria. The buildings retain some original fittings although the large meeting room has been slightly altered. The quiet beauty of the rural setting enhances the significance of this place. The site's heritage significance is under threat from under-use, lack of funds and the deteriorating condition of the ancillary structures. |
