The church has been well recognised throughout history. Charlotte Bronte visited here during her time as governess for Mary Wainman from nearby Lothersdale. Pause to take a look in the church graveyard (near the car park) and you will find a tomb stone dating from 1889. It belongs to John Laycock. The beautifully carved organ is said to be a replica of the first organ he made. If your walk is early on a Sunday morning you may hear the bells chime at Kildwick church. The tower is one of only six in the country to have “Yorkshire tail ends,” a fluffy handle on the end of the pulling ropes. Bells have been rung here since it was built, over 600 years ago.

Signal crayfish, introduced from America to Europe in the 1960s for farming, have now become widespread. They carry a disease that doesn’t harm them but devastates native White-clawed crayfish. The Aire Rivers Trust is working to restore native species and habitat along the river. Kildwick_compressedDownload
