All Saints Church, Raughton Head
Formerly a Chapel of Ease in the Parish of Castle Sowerby, the chapel was rebuilt and consecrated on 21 July 1678 by Bishop Rainbow.
The Church was restored in 1760 and again in 1881, when the gallery was removed, the tower built, the pews altered to their present position and an organ installed. A lychgate was erected in 1884, while the rood screen dates from 1912. On All Saints’ Day 1936, the Church (which previously had no name) was dedicated to All Saints by Bishop Williams.
The Church is open daily and donations are welcome. There is no Guide Book.
