St. Cuthbert’s Church in Kirklinton is a characterful village church in north Cumbria, built in 1845 on the site of an older medieval church. The building is constructed of red sandstone with a three-story west tower, featuring battlements, pointed-arch windows, and a 12th-century Norman chancel arch.
Inside, you'll find a mix of medieval elements and Victorian details: a vaulted oak roof, stained-glass windows with heraldic motifs from the Dacre-Appleby family, and an Art Nouveau oil lamp set from the Keswick School of Industrial Art. The church also contains funerary monuments from the 17th and 18th centuries, including three aedicules for members of the Appleby family.

St Cuthbert’s is a pretty church in the hamlet of Kirklinton.

The original Church of St Cuthbert was constructed around 1374 but it was replaced with the present building in 1845. The only surviving feature are the original Norman doors in the west wall.
