The Benefice of Leyburn & Bellerby

Homepage

We are two churches located in the centre of lower Wensleydale in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales; St Matthew's, Leyburn and St John the Evangelist, Bellerby.

Each church reflects the characteristics of its community:  Bellerby is a small tightly-knit village, whilst the key market town of Leyburn is a hub for social, retail and commercial life.

We believe that the Anglican church exists largely for those who do not attend, so a major part of our vision is reaching out to all those in our parishes.

Your donation would help us grow our churches, enable their vision and maintain our church buildings for future generations.
