St Bega's Church was built as a Chapel of Ease by Lord Rea in 1890. The Church school was originally underneath the church. In 1967, the school moved to a modern building on Longrigg Lane. The ground floor is now used as a village hall and above remains the church.[3]
Architecture
The church was built from the local red and grey sandstone, topped with a slate roof. The church has a bellcote with one bell. The interior space comprises a Nave. The windows are all opaque and pews are moveable.[4] The terracotta, triquetra font, from an earlier church, has triquetras and floral carvings. The church has no churchyard.
