WEST Lane baptists in Haworth have voted overwhelmingly to allow their church to host same-sex marriages.

It is understood to be only the second baptist church in Yorkshire to agree the move.

Same-sex weddings are commonplace now at a variety of venues.

But there is still huge debate and division over whether they should be allowed in churches.

Society – and attitudes – are constantly evolving, as shown by the latest vote.

However, you cannot help but feel that complete consensus is a long way off, if achievable at all.
