The interior of the church looking west. The screen encloses a foyer and other ancillary rooms and appears to be of 20th century date. It probably replaced a gallery. Note the old royal coat of arms above the main door.
Church of St Cuthbert, Pateley Bridge

This is one of the 'Commissioners Churches' (Wikipedia LinkExternal link ) of the early 19th century.

It was built in 1827 to replace the Church of St Mary which was too small for the increasing population of the town and in a poor state.

The church consists of a single space, roughly square, with a small extension enclosing the sanctuary at the east end, and a west tower with flanking porches.

The style is late Georgian Gothic revival, with all the windows having simple intersecting tracery.

There appears to have been a gallery at the west end, but this area has been modified to create a foyer and meeting rooms.

The organ, by Harrison and Harrison, is in the south east corner of the nave.

The one older item in the church is the royal coat of arms, dated 1778 and presumably transferred from the old church.

The church is Listed Grade II.
