List of places of worship in the City of Leeds
This article lists open, former and demolished places of worship situated within the boundaries of the City of Leeds. Demolished places of worship. Adel. Remains of Roman tombstones and altars have been found near Adel Mill along Roman road 72b, which ran from Ilkley to Tadcaster. An altar dedicated to Brigantia and a stone slab with an inscription surrounding a phallus are both preserved in Adel parish church. Beeston. There was a chapel in Beeston with an anchorite cell attached, built before 1257. Bramhope. The original Methodist chapel in Bramhope  was built in 1837, near to the site of the current church, which replaced it in 1896. Buslingthorpe. The Church of St Michael was built in 1852–1854 on Buslingthorpe Lane and demolished in the late 1950s or early 1960s. The architect was O. W. Burleigh, of Leeds. The church was located at the western (Woodhouse Carr) end of Buslingthorpe Lane. Eccup. Kelly's Directory of the West Riding of Yorkshire (1881) refers to a Methodist (Wesleyan) chapel in Eccup. Farsley. Mediaeval Wadlands Hall, Priesthorpe Road, now the location of Wadlands Farm and Wadlands Cottage, had its own private chapel and  chaplain. The field "Chapel Ing" commemorates this chapel, and it is possible that the name "Priesthorpe" is so called from the priest at the hall. Guiseley. Leeds City Council's "Conservation Area Appraisal and Management Plan" for Guiseley notes that "a number of fragments from a 9th century Anglo-Saxon cross were discovered reused in the north wall of St Oswald’s Church. The remains of the cross and the dedication to an early saint may be evidence of a preconquest church at Guiseley." Newsam Green. Archaeologists believe that there may have been a chapel at the Temple Newsam Preceptory , south east of Temple Newsam House, a few yards to the south-east of junction 45 of the M1 motorway. Excavations in 1903 found human remains, stone coffins and a possible chapel, but a rescue dig in 1989-1991 failed to find the chapel, which was surmised to be under an industrial spoil heap to the south. The Gatehouse Gazetteer refers to "the area immediately north of the chapel", which had been disturbed by animal burials before the 1989-1991 excavation. Roundhay. The first post-Reformation Catholic church in Leeds was the Roundhay Mission. Scarcroft. A Roman altar has been  identified near Milner Beck in Scarcroft. Swillington. The Doomsday Book states that 'a church is there', but no record of that building now remains. Thorpe Park. Northern Archaeological Associates make reference to an altar of Iron Age or Roman origin at Grim's Ditch, part of an archaeological site investigated as part of the Thorpe Park commercial development.
