Description: | Undated,
Taken between 1900-1910, a group of deaconesses, dressed in bonnets and gowns. They would work closely with the ministers assisting in their duties, St Peter's Chapel was on the circuit of the Oxford Place Chapel Mission with School Street, Meadow Lane, Pottery Fields, Sweet Street and Bethal Chapels. St Peter's served the people of Quarry Hill, then considered to be the worst slum area of Leeds. The Mission tried to alleviate some of the aspects of squalid living conditions and convent people to the Methodist Religion. | License: | http://www.leodis.net/article.aspx?id=12 | Rights holder: | Leeds Central Library | Subjects: | St Peter's Chapel Leeds Mission | Source: | Leodis - A photographic archive of Leeds | Identifier: | http://www.leodis.net/display.aspx?id=20... | Go to resource |
