St Helen's Church, Overton, Grade II* listed Anglican church in Overton, England
St Helen's Church features sandstone rubble walls, a stone slate roof, and a prominent bellcote with a pointed arch at its western end.
The oldest sections of the church date from the 12th century, with significant modifications made in 1771 when builders added a wider chancel.
The interior walls display painted panels featuring the Ten Commandments and the Lord's Prayer, reflecting traditional Anglican religious practices.
Located in Church Grove, the church maintains regular worship services as part of the Lancaster and Morecambe deanery in the diocese of Blackburn.
The 1902 restoration by Austin and Paley revealed the foundation of an earlier canted apse at the church's eastern end.
