Allendale Quaker Meeting House Open Day
Heritage Open Day: Our historic Quaker Meeting House founded in 1690 is a quiet and peaceful place of worship. Allendale Quakers will show visitors around the Meeting House and gardens and tell the story of Allen Valley Quakers past and present. Allendale Quaker Meeting House is a short walk from the centre of Allendale. It is set in a cluster of stone cottages just beyond the bridge over the East Allen River. Quakers from the Allen Valleys have worshiped in this tranquil place since 1690, and many lie in the burial ground beside the Meeting House. The present building with its matching cottage replaced an earlier Meeting House constructed in 1735.
