A RIDDLESDEN church is celebrating a landmark.

Worshippers at the United Reformed Church are marking the 60th anniversary of the Bar Lane building.

A celebratory service takes place at 10.30am on Sunday, followed by a buffet lunch.

Minister the Rev Fred Rich said: "The overall theme of the service will be God is Love and it will include people's reflections.

"We are hoping our local councillors may be present and a number of past members have been invited to attend."

The church hosts regular Sunday-morning worship and a wide range of other activities and classes, including T and Chat, coffee mornings, exercise sessions and a luncheon club.

Groups, including uniformed youth organisations and Keighley & District Photographic Association, also meet there.

The URC works closely with the village's two other churches, under the Riddlesden Christian Churches banner.

They stage events including an annual carol service in the East Riddlesden Hall barn.
