The Church of St. Michael and All Angels, Hawkshead
The Church of St. Michael and All Angels, Hawkshead
A Grade I listed building. A chapel existed on the site in the 12th century, which was extended to the length of the present church in about 1300. The north and south aisles were added in 1500. In 1578 its status was raised from being a chapelry that of a parish; credit for this has been given to Edwin Sandys, who was born in the village, and who became Archbishop of York.
