St Mary Magdalene's Church, Clitheroe, Grade II* listed Anglican church in Clitheroe, England
The church features coursed rubble gritstone walls, freestone details, and a slate roof with clay ridge tiles across its six-bay nave structure.
The earliest record of religious presence dates to 1122 when the site was granted to Pontefract Priory, with the current tower dating from the 15th century.
The church houses several medieval effigies, a brass plate commemorating headmaster John Webster from 1682, and memorials for First World War casualties.
The church maintains regular services under Revd Dr Judith Clark, with Holy Communion occurring every Sunday at 8 a.m. following the Book of Common Prayer.
The building contains a four-manual organ and eight bells produced by Gillett & Johnston in 1928, enriching the musical experience during services.
