Bentham Quaker Meeting House Open Afternoon

Heritage Open Day: We would like to invite you to explore our listed eighteenth-century Quaker Meeting House in Low Bentham with its ancient graveyard filled with wild flowers and its flourishing allotments. Bentham Meeting House, also known as Calf Cop Meeting House, is a building of elegant simplicity set in deep quietness high above the Burton Road in Low Bentham, with wonderful views of Ingleborough and the surrounding Yorkshire countryside. You are welcome to explore on your own, but also at 14.45 we are offering a talk by Angus Winchester which will explore what the building tells us about Quaker beliefs and worship. The talk will be followed by a five minute mini-Meeting which will give you an opportunity to experience what a Quaker Meeting is like. Tea and home-made cakes will be provided throughout the Open Afternoon for your enjoyment and refreshment.
