St Margaret's Church, High Bentham, Anglican church building in High Bentham, United Kingdom
St Margaret's Church exhibits Gothic Revival architecture with a stone construction, slate roofing, and a tower featuring octagonal angle turrets and embattled parapet.
The church, constructed in 1837, underwent major extensions between 1901 and 1902 by Austin and Paley architects, including a new chancel and transepts.
The church maintained regular services until 2012, when its congregation relocated to St Boniface's Roman Catholic Church or St John's Church in Low Bentham.
The building has been converted into two private residences, featuring modifications while preserving its Grade II listed architectural elements and historical features.
The pipe organ, initially constructed in 1893 and rebuilt by Henry Ainscough in 1937, remains a testament to the church's musical heritage.
