St Oswalds Church Castle Bolton Yorkshire Dales

This picture shows the small church of St Oswald's in Castle Bolton in Wensleydale in the Yorkshire dales.

St Oswald's church is adjacent to the 14th century Bolton castle. The church is a small but beautiful and mostly unaltered medieval place of worship.

I saw this notice on the door of the church and smiled inwardly. "Please close the door to stop the swallows flying into the church. They make a great mess".

  2. What an interesting church! And pretty shots of it inside and out. I love that you included the hand-lettered sign! And I am glad that they leave the door unlocked so that people can enjoy the beautiful interior. I am just blown away by the age of this structure and glad that it has obviously been well taken care of.
