St Mary Virgin & St Michael, LA120TA
The original charter, giving land to the monks who built Furness Abbey, refers to an already established Church of St. Mary in Urswick. Later reference was made to St. Mary in the Fields. Now the Church is known as St. Mary and St. Michael’s, though no one seems to know just when the name of St. Michael was added. However, in his honour Rushbearing takes place each year on the Sunday nearest to St. Michael’s Day (29th September).
