St Gregory's Church

St Gregory's Church

The church was built in the 1860's by Miss Frances Upton of Ingmire Hall and remained in the family's ownership until 1918. The church was declared redundant in 1984 and is now in the care of the Churches Conservation Trust and is open to visitors every day. It is situated on the A684 Kendal road about 1½ miles west of Sedbergh.

The furniture and fittings are of exceptional quality with woodwork by Waring & Gillow of Lancaster. The stained glass windows are unusual in that most of them depict scenes of nature as opposed to the religious themes adopted by most churches.
