We are a small but welcoming rural village church, built in 1896, overlooking the stunning Esk Valley. We have some beautiful stained glass windows and an organ built by Peter Conacher & Co., of Huddersfield and Dublin. The organ was installed in 1910 and the most recent restoration was in 1986, it is a single Manual Pipe Organ with pedals and seven speaking stops.
See the photographs of the exterior, interior, stained glass windows and the organ in the "gallery" at the top left of your screen.
