Wakefield’s Chantry Chapel of St Mary the Virgin is the oldest and most elaborate. Situated over the River Calder, the chapel’s history dates back over 650 years. At 320 feet in length, the bridge is unusually long for its age.

It was built by the people of Wakefield, replacing an earlier wooden structure and dates from between 1342 and 1356, Tolls were levied from 1342 with the authority of the Crown, on those crossing the Calder. The funds provided were used to construct a new bridge this time of stone of which the chapel itself is a key structural element, built on a tiny island in the river.

Chantry Chapel in Wakefield will be celebrating its 650th anniversary this year 2006 there are only three Chantry Chapels left in the whole of the UK.

The image on the front of this card was designed and created by Jonathan Black who also personally hand stitched the original picture.

We would like to point out that while some of the images are shown as been used for specific occasions eg Weddings, Christenings, Anniversaries, Christmas cards etc its is purely for show, you chose the image that you think would suit your special event, then we will customise it to your personal requirements.
