Holy Trinity Church, Millom

Holy Trinity Church is a medieval parish church in Millom that combines Norman and English Gothic architectural elements in its stone structure. The building displays various architectural features from different periods in its stonework and design.

The church was founded in 1150 and served as an important religious center in Millom for centuries. It underwent major renovations in the 1930s when architects modernized the interior and enlarged the chancel.

The church houses many monuments dedicated to the Huddlestone family, whose oldest memorial commemorates Sir John Huddlestone and dates back to 1484. These memorials reflect the family's deep connection to the place over centuries.

The church is an active Anglican parish that welcomes visitors throughout the year to view its interior and architectural details. Plan your visit around regular worship times to avoid disrupting services.

A cross-shaft fragment from the 10th or 11th century is built into the northeast corner of the chancel, preserved during the 1930s renovations. This ancient stonework represents a rare remnant from an even earlier period of the church's existence.
