St. Andrew's Church, Sedbergh

About

Set in the heart of Sedbergh in a beautifully maintained churchyard the church, which dates from 1130, is a haven of peace.

Inside it has a warm welcome in a surprisingly light and airy space. It is home to the Sedbergh embroideries which depict the history of the Town.

The inner north doorway is probably the earliest surviving part of the church and this suggests that there has always been a north aisle. In the late 1800s a major restoration was carried out under the architects Paley and Austin. Further restoration work was undertaken in the period 1995-2005 and the chancel extended in 2010 to create a performance area and a space for a forward altar.
