In the Middle Ages, Hartwith cum Winsley (then known as Brimham) formed part of the lands of Fountains Abbey, which established granges at Wise Ing (near Smelthouses), Braisty Woods, Brimham Grange and Brimham Park. [3] At Brimham Grange there was a chapel, where local recusants kept a Catholic priest in the late 16th century. [4] In the 18th century Brimham Hall was built on the site of Brimham Grange and is now a Grade II listed building. [5] Brimham Park was used by the abbots as a hunting lodge. It was replaced in 1661 by a substantial house now known as Brimham Lodge, which is a Grade I listed building. [6]
St Jude's Church, Hartwith was originally built in 1751 as a chapel-of-ease, to save the inhabitants the 12 mile journey to their then parish church at Kirkby Malzeard. It became the parish church in 1891. [7] It was then dedicated to St Jude at the request of former parishioners who had emigrated to Australia and attended St Jude's Church, Carlton in Melbourne. [8] It is a Grade II listed building. [9]
