St Michael's Church

St Michael's on Wyre is one of seven ancient parishes of the hundred of Amounderness. It was the third largest, with an area of 18888 acre. The Domesday Book of 1086 lists three churches in Amounderness, one of which was probably St Michael's. There has certainly been a church on the site from at least the 13th century, elements of which remain in the current building. The present church was possibly built in the 15th century and alterations were made in the 17th century. The church was designated a Grade I listed building on 17 April 1967. The Grade I listing is for buildings "exceptional interest, sometimes considered to be internationally important".

The church is typical of late Medieval churches of northern England and is constructed of sandstone ashlar and rubble. It is inscribed with Gothic script. The second bell was cast in 1663 by Geoffrey Scott of Wigan. The third dates from 1742 and was cast by Abel Rudhall of Gloucestershire.
