Overview
Grid reference: NY 37 11
The church was designed by C.J. Ferguson in 1890 and replaced a corrugated iron semi-permanent structure of 1881. It is built of the local red sandstone with a slate roof and is a simple building with nave, chancel, south aisle and bellcote. The vesica window with the holy dove and angels is by Seward and Co. and is inspired by the one at Holy Trinity church, Millom (quite unusual?). The interior is a pleasant space, enhanced by the south aisle which makes it appear light and airy. There is some stained glass in the chancel windows and the timber fittings to the pulpit and choir stalls are well executed.
