Helsington Church is well known to walkers not so much for its interior (or exterior) but for its location and the unparalleled views of the Lake District fells to be enjoyed from its front gate. The ground to the west slopes down sharply into the Lyth valley, to offer an unobstructed sight of everything from the Kent estuary in Morecambe Bay across to Black Combe in the far west to the Coniston range, Scafell, the Langdales and the peaks beyond Grasmere in the north-west. Amazing!
