The old church of St. Leonard's in Chapel-le-Dale, North Yorkshire, England.


St. Leonard’s church sits in a small woodland area in the hamlet of Chapel-le-Dale, about two miles outside of Ingleton. Built in the late 17th century with some 18th century additions, it was, according to English Heritage, vastly restored in 1869. Workers and others who died as a result of accidents during the building of the nearby Ribblehead Viaduct between 1870 and 1877 were buried in the churchyard and are remembered by a plaque erected in the year 2000.
