The wide, low church with its stocky Norman tower is a haven of peace beside the busy A59 which bisects
this historic market town. The nave, partly constructed in stone from Sawley Abbey, has two massive pillars,
contrasting with the lighter Perpendicular work. The fragmentary remains of medieval glass comprise a weeping saint of
the 15th century and three beautiful angels from the original east window.
Hatchments and tablets record the Listers of Gisburne Park (later Lords Ribblesdale).
