Background
History
The church was built in 1879–80 to replace a church built in 1726 or 1727 on the same site. It was designed by the Lancaster architects Paley and Austin. The new church provided seating for 148 people at a cost of about £2,000 (). The major benefactor was William Wilson of Rigmaden Park, with additional contributions from Trinity College, Cambridge, the Earl of Bective, and the vicar of Kirkby Lonsdale. The porch was added in 1903.
Architecture
Inside the church are waggon roofs. The font is octagonal, and the pulpit is in timber on a stone base. In the tower is an elaborate Gothic wall memorial to a couple who died in 1845 and 1851 respectively. The stained glass in the west window, dated 1865, is by Lavers, Barraud and Westlake. In a north window is glass by Hardman dated 1878.
