Bellcote. Church of Saint Margaret of Antioch. Wythop, Lake District National Park, Cumbria, England, United Kingdom, Europe.
The present Church at Wythop, dedicated to St Margaret of Antioch, (who is depicted in the North chapel window) was consecrated by the Bishop of Carlisle on July 31st 1866. It was designed by Bruce of Whitehaven, and replaces the old church now in ruin, which can still be visited at Chapel Wood, Kelsick, and which dates back to the 14th or 16th Century. The new Church is built on land which belonged to the Vane Estate. Lord Inglewood (Richard Vane) now lives at Hutton-in-the-Forest. The Church is unusual in having the porch on the north side because of the fell-side site. The alter cross is made from wood taken from the ruins of the old church, and was covered in brass at the Keswick school of Industrial Arts.
