Background
History
The church was built to serve the then growing housing estate of Gipton. Designed by Nugent Cachemaille-Day and built by Armitage Hodgson of Leeds, groundbreaking began in 1936 and the church opened in 1938. The foundation stone was laid on 12 July 1937 by Elsie Burroughs, the sister of the late Bishop of Ripon in a ceremony attended by the Princess Royal. The church replaced a temporary church which was built in 1936 to accommodate congregations during construction. Originally intended to be dedicated to Saint Edmund, the church opened as the Parish Church of the Epiphany. Alterations were made to the church in 1976. The church was Grade I listed on 25 June 1993.
