All three Anglican churches in Cleckheaton have created “Easter Gardens” to mark Holy Week.

St John’s, St Luke’s and Whitechapel churches each have three crosses in place, along with a stone “tomb” to represent Jesus’s death on Good Friday.

On Easter Sunday, April 17, the stone will be rolled away and a white cloth placed inside to represent the empty tomb and the resurrection of Jesus.
