Church of St Mary le Ghyll, Barnoldswick, Medieval church in Barnoldswick, England.

The stone structure features a continuous nave with chancel, south aisle with porch, west tower, and numerous stepped lancet windows throughout the building.

The interior displays traditional Jacobean box pews arranged to face a three-decker pulpit, along with painted boards showing the Lord's Prayer and Ten Commandments.

Services occur every second, third, fourth, and some fifth Sundays at 11:30 a.m., with refreshments served afterward in the Coach House.

The church maintains a complete set of original box pews and houses six bells, including three cast in 1723, preserving centuries of religious heritage.
