Brockholes Methodist Church
Image: © Humphrey Bolton Taken: 29 Nov 2005
Brockholes started as a hamlet in Thurstonland township, but merged with Smithy Place in Honley township grew into an industrial village with its own church, chapel and school. This chapel uses the Perpendicular style, but in a 19C way. Note the basement room with access from the road, using the fall of the land to advantage, and the fine pair of (Chilean?) pine trees.
