Sadly, our lovely church is in need of major structural repairs. The good news is that we have been offered a £50,000 English Heritage Grant. The bad news is that we have to raise a further £50,000.
We had many fund raising events in 2003 & 2004, many more this year
From 16th -18th June, 2006 we plan a 'gathering of the clan' of the Fothergill Family who have had association with the parish since long before St Oswald's was built.
St.Oswald's Ravenstonedale is part of a United Benefice with St. James' Tebay and All Saints Orton. Vicar: Fr. Tony Dalton,

in the index
of gravestones in the church grounds. The index draws on
a manuscript survey completed in 1994 by Mrs. C Bunney (1910-1995)
of Hwith, Ravenstonedale. |
