St Judes Church, Hunslet.

Post by Dean from Leeds »

Does anyone have any information and or photographs of St Judes Church that was on the Hunslet Road and Leathely Road Junction?

I understand that it was demolished in the late 1950's / early 1960's. I am trying to find a war memorial that I would have assumed would have been there. My Great Uncle George Henry Hitchen was killed in the first world war and was married at St Judes and so I would like to find a memorial with his name on it.

I have had a look on Leodis however I can find no reference to the memorial.

I have been told that the memorial may have been re-located at St Mary's church Hunslet however I have not been able to confirm this, any information and or help is appreciated.

Regards Dean

I have recently found St Judes Parish Magazine dated June 1924. Is this any use to you?
