Arson attacks on St Margaret’s Church in Ilkley
On 10 January, an arson attack was reported at St Margaret's Church in Ilkley. It is believed that an umbrella stand in the entrance to the building was set on fire.
The churchwardens of the place of worship, which dates back to the 1870s, said that they had taken the tough decision to cancel services this week, with the hope Sunday services will resume as normal from this weekend.
