Protected Status/Designation

  • None recorded

Full Description

There is a Mission Church situated here on the 3rd edition 25" OS map of the early 19th century that is not present on the 2nd edition 25" OS map of c. 1900. It appears to have superseded an earlier church to the north (see SMR 16030). (1-2) A page on the Jacksdale and Westwood Community Website mentions the Stoneyford Memorial Plaque, 'which used to be inside the tin tabernacle at Stoneyford. The tabernacle has now been re-constructed at the Golden Valley Railway Museum. The Memorial Plaque is now inside Christ Church, Ironville [SMR 21817]'. It is uncertain whether the tin tabernacle they refer to is the Mission Church, or the earlier Holy Trinity Church [see SMR 16030 also]. (3) The building has since been demolished or removed. The site remains undeveloped [2011]. (4)
