St Mary Magdalene, Gilsland

In beautiful countryside near the border of Cumbria with Northumberland, our church has welcomed people gathering for generations. We would love to meet you and share the welcome with you too. 

We meet here at 9.30 in the morning on the second and fourth Sunday of the month and at other times for special events. 

Come and join us at any of these times. 

The church building is open daily for anyone to come in and enjoy some peace and quiet too.
