The village of Cartmel, close to Grange-over-Sands, grew up around the twelfth century Priory church which, according to legend, was built between two parallel streams in response to a ’heavenly voice’. Today, Cartmel Priory is one of the finest ecclesiastical buildings in the north of England. It survives as the centre of village life, and is a place of worship, a concert venue and a visitor attraction with professional guided tours every Wednesday throughout the summer months.

This is a beautiful 12th Century priory with an extensive and fascinating history. You can look round when services aren't taking place. This is free, but donations are gratefully accepted to help with the upkeep of the church. I can also thoroughly recommend the monks' tours which are run by volunteers. Click through to the Cartmel Priory website for more information.
