Wincobank Chapel and Iron Age Hillfort

Heritage Open Day: Visit the historic Wincobank Chapel, founded in 1841 as a village school by anti-slavery campaigner Mary Ann Rawson. Meet the Brigantes of Wincobank Hill and join a guided walk to Sheffield's Iron Age Hillfort. In 1817 Joseph and Elizabeth Read established a chapel in the coach house of Wincobank Hall. They also started a Sunday school in the laundry-room and eventually raised funds for a new school building still in use today as a chapel and community centre. Come and enjoy browsing through our fascinating archive of memorabilia, photographs and documents from over a century of community activity.
