Saint Aidan of Lindisfarne, detail of Nave North aisle window. Church of Saint Michael. Lamplugh, Cumbria, England,

---

St Michael's Church dated 1870, is the only original Lakeland example of architecture by William Butterfield, and therefore demands attention. William Butterfield (1814-1900) was an important ecclesiastical architect, creating many churches including Keble College Chapel, Oxford. Lamplugh is a fairly plain design, with a few oddities, such as the two storey chancel arch which incorporates an earlier Perpendicular arch. The window by Kempe and Tower, depicts Saint Aidan of Lindisfarne. The dedication of the window reads:- "Giving thanks to God for the beloved memory of John Dickinson his children have dedicated this window ".
