St Catherine's Church, Boot, Gothic parish church in Boot, England
St Catherine's Church features random rubble walls, a slate roof with stone ridge, and a gabled double bellcote at the western end of the structure.
The church site dates from the 6th century, with the current structure built in the 14th century and restored by Paley and Austin architects in 1881.
The interior contains an octagonal font with low-relief carvings, stained glass windows from 1889 depicting religious scenes, and a benefactors' board from 1798.
The church stands half a mile from Dalegarth Station terminal, with parking available within 250 meters and level access throughout the grounds.
A bell in the church's bellcote was cast in 1445, connecting modern visitors to medieval craftsmanship and local religious practices.
