A handwritten inscription inside reads "Presented by John Lancaster to the trustees of the Wesleyan Methodist Congregation Bradford on the occasion of the opening of their new Church" dated "Bradford January 18--" (corner is torn off). Inside is an insert noting an announcement from M. Rutherford and containing information on the Provincial Sunday School Convention. Another insert appears to be a handwritten programme of service. Some pencil markings inside, including Psalm 80:13 written in at the end of the Old Testament. Revelations is missing.

This was the Bible presented to the Wesleyan Methodist Church of Bradford (later the Bradford United Church) by local preacher John Lancaster at the opening and dedication of the Church on January 15, 1865.
