Stanghow

A Chapel was built here in 1910 and is now a community hall. The end building in Low Stanghow was used as a girl guide hall in the twenties and thirties, but it was actually built as a chapel in the 19th century and was known as the 'Gospel Hall'. 

​Two wagon loads of timber from ships in Whitby docks were bought for construction. Liddle brothers of Moorsholm took two carts and 6 horses to haul the timber, 2 horses to a cart with two spare for relief. Several kegs of rum were bought for the cellar at Stanghow Hall at 9 shillings a keg.
