    Embargo No embargo required. Title The United Benefice of Kirkburton, All Hallows and Shelley, Emmanuel is excited to launch their Burial Ground Management System project - thanks to the support of the National Lottery • Public launch of the pilot project by Ven Dr Anne Dawtry • Wednesday 26 February 2020 at All Hallows and Thursday 27 February 2020 at Emmanuel - both at 10.30 am • Everyone welcome Main text Kirkburton, All Hallows and Shelley, Emmanuel, two churches near Huddersfield in the Anglican Diocese of Leeds, received a Sharing Heritage grant of £6,100 in March 2018 from The National Lottery Heritage Fund for the pilot project focused on their two churchyards. The reality of this project was made possible by money raised by National Lottery players. This innovative project involved pioneering research to develop the distinctive heritage of the two churchyards, and will add great value for the local and wider communities of all ages. It is the first project of its kind in the UK to go live! Genealogists, historians and interested parties will benefit greatly from easy online- access to search for information. Atlantic Geomatics (UK) Ltd digitally mapped the historic churchyards of Kirkburton and Shelley. Volunteers from the churches and local history group were trained to take high-quality photographs of approximately 6000 memorials, which are now linked directly to the memorial location on the map. The burial registers were scanned and the volunteers transcribed the text in the registers onto the portal, linking them to the images and map. This project in conjunction with existing information, benefits the conservation areas of both churchyards, in particular in All Hallows’ Churchyard which for many years has won the Green Flag Community Award.
