Keeping the church safe and watertight costs thousands of pounds every year. If you donated just the price of a cup of coffee, you would directly help maintain this sacred place. If you are able to pledge this gift monthly, what better lasting souvenir of your visit to Grasmere? We are so grateful for any donation you make.

A very warm "Welcome!" to St Oswald's Church, Grasmere

We are in the heart of the central Lake District, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. St Oswald's is a medieval church on a 7th century site - a sacred place of prayer and celebration since the earliest days of christianity in northern Britain. William Wordsworth with his wife Mary and sister Dorothy Wordsworth rest in our churchyard along with their family and villagers. 

Locals and visitors "belong" here, both for quiet reflection and the joy of communal worship and music on Sundays and festivals.
