A print to
make your own.
The broad east window anchors the church in its enclosure of trees and gravestones. Above the roofline, the detached tower holds its own patch of green. The rising ground makes the relationship between these two buildings visible at a glance.

In my words.
After spending time at Hadrian’s Wall, I took to the lanes on a cycle loop through Armathwaite and Kirkoswald. I stopped at the Fetherston Arms, then went to St Oswald’s. Here the experience opened vertically: a spring beneath the nave and a bell tower high above the church.
I wanted the photograph to hold those different levels together. The roof settles into the trees, while the tower is lifted clear of them. A path, a wall and the scattered gravestones give the eye a way into the scene. It is a building understood through its setting, with the landscape doing some of the explaining.
From the spring to the hill.
St Oswald’s retains twelfth-century fabric, including Romanesque arches in the nave. The spring emerges at the west end, where the well is still a tangible part of a visit. The separate bell tower has an eighteenth-century core and was rebuilt in 1893. Its height carries the sound of the bells towards the village.
