Coneysthorpe Chapel Open Again The Chapel has just been reopened after a closure of eighteen months in order to carry out urgent repairs to the main roof rafters which were damaged due to age and wear and tear. Extensive funding had to be raised in order to do this and we are most grateful to: The Yorkshire Historic Churches Trust The Sir John Priestman Foundation The Archdeacons Fund The York diocese and to Kevin and Denise of Beech House Coneysthorpe for generous contributions raised though their delicious pop-up teas in the village hall.
