Christ Church, Over Wyresdale, Grade II listed Anglican church in Over Wyresdale, England

The stone church features a west tower with a slated spire, diagonal buttresses, and pointed head windows with Gothic tracery details throughout the structure.

Built in 1733 and extensively modified in 1894 by architect John Douglas, the church replaced a previous chapel dating from the 15th century.

The church contains architectural elements from different periods, including carved pews from 1894 and ornate pulpit panels dating back to 1684.

Located west of Abbeystead village, the church serves the Anglican parish within the Diocese of Blackburn and maintains regular religious services for the community.

The east window displays five ogee lights under a Tudor-arched head, while the bell openings feature two lights with segmental heads in the tower.
