Description:	The present building dates from 1845 though there has been a church on the site for much longer. Although located in an isolated spot, the road which passes the church was once an important road, part of a track which leads from Matterdale over to Wanthwaite and on to the Naddle Valley. The church welcomes many visitors who happen on the church on their journey over High Rigg. The building conveys a warm atmosphere which is conducive to peace and prayer.

Description:	Wythburn Church stands in an isolated spot on the A591 in the shadow of Helvellyn overlooking Thirlmere reservoir. The community has long since gone following the flooding of the valley and the creation of Thirlmere. Still it welcomes visitors and travellers, with its simple charm and peaceful atmosphere.
