St Oswald's Church, nestled in the village of Ravenstonedale, Cumbria, is a historic landmark that has served the community for centuries by providing a space for worship, education, and social care. This Grade I listed building, originally constructed in 1738, features a fascinating Georgian interior, complete with a unique three-decker pulpit and important monastic ruins from the 13th century.
The churchyard of St Oswald's is not only a tranquil haven for wildlife but also a significant final resting place for many generations across different denominations. The efforts of the Friends of St Oswald's charity, which was active from 2011 to 2021, helped raise vital funds for the preservation and maintenance of this historically rich site, ensuring its legacy for future generations.
