St Michael's Church, Medieval church in Barton and Pooley Bridge, England

St Michael's Church presents stone walls, slate roofs, and a central Norman tower, with octagonal piers supporting three-bay arcades throughout the structure.

The church foundations date from 1150, with the south aisle and arcade added in the mid-13th century, followed by the north aisle around 1300.

The interior contains medieval artifacts including a font with an octagonal bowl, 17th-century communion rails, and stained glass windows from 1913.

The structure maintains regular Anglican services within the deanery of Penrith and features a circular churchyard with twelve Grade II listed monuments.

This religious building stands as the sole medieval church in Cumbria featuring a central Norman tower, marking its architectural distinction in the region.
