St Francis’ church, Westfield Road, Morley, West Yorkshire LS27 9NF (Entrance & Car Park)
The parish today combines the former parishes of St Francis, Morley and St Brigid, Churwell. A church was built at Churwell in 1929 and the area became a separate parish in 1954. The church closed in 2010 with the reorganisation of parishes in Leeds. A Mass centre was first established in Morley in 1889, served from St Mary’s, Batley. The parish came into being in 1898 and the present Church of St Francis of Assisi opened in 1905, designed by Edward Simpson of Bradford.
