List of Commissioners' churches in Yorkshire facts for kids

Kids Encyclopedia Facts

A Commissioners' church is a special kind of Anglican church in the United Kingdom. These churches were built using money approved by the UK Parliament through a law called the Church Building Act 1818, and other similar laws that followed.

People have called these churches by different names, like "Commissioners' Churches," "Waterloo Churches," or "Million Act Churches." Sometimes, the Commissioners (the group in charge of the money) paid for the entire church. Other times, they gave a grant, and local people raised the rest of the money. This list shows the Commissioners' churches that were built in Yorkshire.

Understanding Church Grades

When we talk about old buildings, they often have a "grade" that tells us how important they are. This helps protect them for the future. Here's what the grades mean for churches:

Grade What it means
Grade I These are buildings that are super important and special. They might even be famous around the world.
Grade II* These buildings are very important and have a lot of special history or design.
Grade II These are buildings that are important to the country and have special features.
"—" means the building is not graded.

Yorkshire's Commissioners' Churches

Here is a list of the Commissioners' churches built in Yorkshire. You'll see when they were built, how much money the Commissioners gave, who designed them, and some interesting facts. Many of these churches were built in the Gothic Revival style, which means they looked like old medieval churches with pointed arches and tall towers.
