The United Reformed Church in Guisborough was previously the Congregational Church. The church is situated on the North side of Westgate, Guisbough, almost opposite the Methodist Church.

Of the three names on the First World War Memorial plaque in the church, one is that of a soldier who served with the Yorkshire Regiment.

We are very grateful to Bolckow for allowing us to use his photos of the memorial and of the church.
