Heritage Open Days: Find out how you can tour Ossett's Trinity Church tower this weekend
and live on Freeview channel 276
Built in 1865, Trinity Church is set amid 5-and-a-half acres of land and has a spire height of 226ft – one of the tallest in Yorkshire.
Restored over recent years to its former glory, visitors are invited to enjoy the wonderful architecture and stained glass windows of this magnificent worship and community space as more of its treasures are revealed, including the completed restoration work on the east and west windows and fabulous Last Supper Reredos.

Visitors can also enjoy a game of crazy golf inside the church building.
The church will be open as part of the national Heritage Open Days on Saturday, September 16 between 10am and 4pm.
Entry to Trinity Church is free but admission to the tower is £3 for adults and £1.50 for children.
