St Chad's Church, Far Headingley, Gothic Revival church in Far Headingley, England

Built in 1868, St Chad's Church rises 57 meters with a rectangular chancel, featuring a Lady chapel and an organ chamber on its sides.

The Beckett family of Kirkstall Grange donated the land and contributed £10,000 for the construction, with architects Edmund Beckett Denison and W.H. Crossland leading the project.

The Creation window, installed above the altar in 1922, was designed by M.E. Aldrich Rope and represents a central artistic element of the church.

The church maintains regular services, including Thursday morning communions at 10:30, followed by refreshments for community gathering and conversation.

The church received recognition for its environmental initiatives, winning both an Eco-congregation award and the Church Times national award for its wildlife-friendly churchyard.
