St Thomas' Church, Kendal, Gothic Revival church in Stricklandgate, Kendal, England

The church features a four-stage west tower with triple lancet windows, stepped buttresses, and a castellated parapet topped with corner pinnacles.

Local architect George Webster designed the church, which was constructed between 1835 and 1837 and received its consecration on July 5, 1837.

The interior contains near-abstract stained glass windows created by Shrigley and Hunt, displaying modern artistic elements within the traditional church setting.

The church holds regular Sunday Holy Communion services and offers Wednesday midday services followed by community lunches with soup and rolls.

The tower incorporates a clock that was transferred from the Kendal town hall, marking time for the local community through generations.
