Friends Meeting House, Bridge End

  • Description

    "This is the oldest Meeting House in Northumberland still in regular use for Quaker worship. A Meeting House was built here in 1688, replaced in 1735 and rebuilt in the late 1860s. Historically its congregation was drawn from the farming country around. Outside, there is a burial ground which is at least as old as the earliest Meeting House here, with several marked graves. There is also a separate cottage and an outbuilding with privy. http://www.northumbriaquakers.org.uk/pdfdownloads2016/Allendale%20LM.pdf" Photo by Andrew Curtis, 2017.
