More about this scene

Holy Trinity Church was built in the late 17th century, probably on the site of a medieval oratory founded by monks from Shap Abbey. The six ancient yews which surrounded it were said to be even older and grew higher than the tower. The first burial in the churchyard was in 1729; until then coffins were strapped to pack horses and taken by the 'corpse road' over Mardale Common for burial at Shap. In 1936 the church was demolished and about one hundred coffins were exhumed for reburial at Shap cemetery.
