This Grade 1 Listed Building (in the same category as Hampton Court Palace and Salisbury Cathedral) lies in the valley of the River Aire, at the foot of the Pennine Moors and at the entrance to the Yorkshire Dales. Paid for out of his own pocket by Sir Titus Salt, it is a focal point of the “model” village, Saltaire, that he built for the workers at his huge mill to ensure their spiritual needs were catered for.
➡️ The survey is now closed. Thank you for all the submissions.

The bells were rung for the last time to celebrate the signing of the Armistice in 1918, and by 1922 were in a bad way when inspected by Taylors. They recommended a new frame and fittings, but no action was taken.. By the 1930s YACR Reports were listing practice ringing by arrangement with Alfred Riley, which suggests wishful thinking about their condition. By 1936 they had been officially declared unringable. The YACR Report for 1937/38 shows Riley as deceased, and this is the last mention of Saltaire in the annals of the Association. It is likely that interest in the bells died along with their last ringer, and they were removed during the Second World War and sold for scrap for £85. They were reinstated in September 2003, and as is the tradition each bell is named. One is named Titus, another is Jonathan.The bells were cast in Eindhoven, Holland, by Royal Eijsbout Foundry.

When I worked In Saltaire about 9 years ago, the lead was stolen off the roof of the mausoleum, for 2 years just a trap covered the roof of the mausoleum until it was repaired I found that a bit disrespectful to the memory of the Salt family. Yet another lovely thought-provoking video Thank You

That was magnificent. I never knew just what we had at Saltaire. The Salt Mausoleum in Bradford's answer to the New Sacristy at Florence. OK, Lockwood and Mawson may not have been Michelangelo, but they gave it their best shot. I hope they held their heads up high.

I absolutely love Saltaire and this church. What a treat to see the bell tower and up inside the organ, when I last visited the organist told me that the organ it's self was actually too big for the size of the church ,which is why it seems so very loud ! If I was Titus I would have been very irritated by the light that hangs in front of the balcony , it really does limit the view but at the same time it IS fabulous. I loved every minute of this video - so interesting - thank you both for taking the time to make it .

We are really glad you enjoyed it. You are right about the organ, it's really overpowering, especially when you are filming. 😀 Thanks for your comment 👍🏾

Try and get access to the Board Room in the main building. I have been in there and, if it is still the same, it is as used by Sir T. Magnificent!

That was such an excellent look behind-the-scenes and I am ever so grateful to have seen it. Love the Game of Thrones organ music - make it all so atmospheric. LOL Well done. I have been to Saltaire twice but missed this close up of the church. Many thanks. I associate Saltaire with Leeds more than with Bradford, as I simply took the train from Leeds, but perhaps it is more closely related to Bradford. Cheers
