Situated 8 miles north east of Leeds, the Parish of Bardsey is the northern most parish in the Archdeaconry of Leeds in the Diocese of Ripon and Leeds. The Parish is also part of the Allerton Deanery. Our two churches, the Parish Church of All Hallows, Bardsey and the Church of Saint Mary Magdalene, East Keswick, serve the villages of Bardsey, East Keswick, Scarcroft and Wike.
All Hallows, Bardsey, dates from the ninth century and contains one of the best surviving Anglo-Saxon buildings in West Yorkshire. Also to be viewed within this church is the Bardsey Millennium Tapestry: a twenty-first century artwork, displayed in an ancient setting.
Saint Mary Magdalene, East Keswick, is a Victorian church noted for its ‘mouseman’ furnishings.
