About

Come and see three statues by John Skeaping RA and listen to a talk about how they come to be in Castleford Parish Church.


Standing over six feet tall and carved from the Nigerian wood Opepe, these statues have made their way to Castleford’s Grade II listed Parish Church after many years on display at Kings College, Cambridge.


You can view the statues anytime from 10am until 2pm but the talk will commence at 12pm.


Organised by Castleford Parish Church and Castleford Civic Society as part of Heritage Open Days 2025.
