St. Winifred’s church, Holbeck

St. Winifred’s church in Holbeck, Nottinghamshire, a former private chapel build for the 6th Duke of Portland between 1913 – 1916.

Holbeck sits within an area of Nottinghamshire known as The Dukeries, because at one point there were four ducal seats, one of which – Welback Abbey – was home to the Dukes of Portland, who still maintain ownership of the estate along with the Dukes of Newcastle.

It’s a significant estate and much of it is private, although there are public rights of way allowing visitors to explore the area. I have more photos to come at a later date where I did just that.
