St Mary's Church, Ulverston, Grade II* listed Anglican church in Ulverston, England.

St Mary's Church features a three-stage west tower with angle buttresses, constructed from local limestone and sandstone beneath slate roofs.

The church site dates back to 1111, with the current tower built between 1540 and 1560 after a storm destroyed the previous structure.

The south chancel aisle transformed into a war memorial chapel in 1923 houses monuments including one from 1588 dedicated to William Sandys.

The church accommodates 1,400 people and includes modern amenities such as accessible toilets, a refreshment area, and meeting spaces following 2008 renovations.

The bell tower contains six bells cast by Whitechapel Foundry in 1836, accessed through a winding spiral staircase of 34 stone steps.
