URPoint Details
The Church of St Kentigern (St Mungo) is mainly late Perpendicular to the early 16th century with a west tower. There are several interesting brasses and monuments. The first church at Crosthwaite is believed to have been built in 553 AD under the direction of St Kentigern, who preached the Gospel in the area before moving on to Wales. No records survive of this building, or of its Saxon successor. Both were probably wooden structures.
