Levedale - Levedale Church

Levedale Church

In ancient times, there was a chapel of ease at Levedale dedicated to St Laurence but it had reportedly fallen into disuse by 1563

Today there is a small Anglican Mission church dating from the last half of the 19th century. In the 19th century missions were established at Whiston (1880) and Levedale (c. 1881) and in the former oratory chapel at Pillaton Hall (1888). The mission church at Whiston is of red brick and consists of nave, small chancel, and south porch. It has pointed windows and a bell-cote above the west gable. The mission church at Levedale stands on the east side of the road and is a small weather-boarded building with leaded windows. In 1956 the plate included a silver chalice and silver paten, formerly the property of the late Revd. J. H. Kenysson, Vicar of Penkridge, who presented them to Levedale church.
