St Mary and St Michael's Church, Great Urswick

[2] The church is constructed in stone rubble with ashlar dressings and a slate roof.

Its plan consists of a four-bay nave with a south porch, a chancel with a north vestry, and a west tower.

Above the doorway is a three-light window with Perpendicular tracery and a niche containing a sculpture of the Pietà.

[3] Inside the church is a west gallery carried on pairs of Doric columns.

The choir stalls and the organ case are carved with angels playing a variety of instruments.

The reredos includes a painting by James Cranke, and is flanked by carved figures of Virgin Mary and Saint Michael.

The three-decker pulpit dates from the 18th century, and has a tester of 1912, which consists of a scallop carried by putti.

Also in the church is a 13th-century coffin lid inscribed with a foliated cross, and memorial wall tablets dating from the 18th and 19th centuries.

[4] The two-manual pipe organ is located on the north side of the chancel, and was built by Wilkinson of Kendal in about 1910.

This consists of an inscribed square pier on a four-stepped base, with a round plate and gnomon.
