Rev Parsons

Placeholder for Rev Parsons blue plaque

Salem Chapel. Opened by the Independents in 1791 is the city centre's oldest surviving chapel. Its distinctive ministries of the Revds Parsons, Hudswell, Smith and Wrigley, and Guntrip sustained a vibrant chapel life; closure only came in 2001. Leeds United FC was founded here in 1919.
