Church Walks

In the Binsey Mission Community there are twelve churches where services are held at least once a month and, in most cases, every week. In addition there are three disused churches, or their remains, where a service is still held annually.

A series of walks has been devised by Ros Downing which visits each of these fifteen churches in turn on a complete circuit of the Binsey Mission Community. The walker is taken through delightful, quiet countryside, with stunning views, on the northern borders of the Lake District National Park, away from the tourist honey-pots. At the start and end of each walk there is the opportunity to enter a peaceful building which in most cases has been a place of worship for many centuries, and in all cases is of interest historically and architecturally. Exercise for the body, mind, and spirit!

The walks are available to download for you to print at home. It is recommended that you download the Introduction first and then select any or all of the walks:
