The 170-year-old St Mary Magdalene Parish Church in Outwood is facing permanent closure and the risk of collapse due to severe subsidence issues caused by its location on an old pit. Architects estimate that repairs will cost between £1m and £2m. While online fundraising has been launched, the vicar acknowledges it is unlikely to raise the full amount needed. If the building must close, the congregation plans to continue worshipping elsewhere, potentially at the nearby Church Institute.
