St Paul
The Parish of St Paul, Rusland is a small country parish in breathtaking scenery. Since 2003 it has been part of the Benefice of Hawkshead with Low Wray and Sawrey and Rusland and Satterthwaite, and enjoys an especially close relationship with All Saints, Satterthwaite, sharing all social events.
The church building is listed and lies on a rocky outcrop in the midst of the parish's scattered community. The church is an important part of this communty, a position it works hard to maintain. The community itself is very active, even though the houses in the parish are scattered, with the only collections of dwellings being at Rusland Cross, Crosslands and Thwaite Moss. The church is kept open for visitors at all times, who find it a place of peace and tranquillity. We hope it is also a place where people sense the presence of God.

St Peter
Sawrey is a rural parish bounded by Esthwaite Water and Windermere in the Southern Lake District. It includes the villages of Far Sawrey, Near Sawrey and the hamlet of High Cunsey and various outlying properties. The parish is served by the B5385 leading from Hawkshead to the Ferry landing, or you might well want to come via the Ferry from Bowness-on-Windermere. Sawrey's most famous resident was, of course, Beatrix Potter who lived in the village at Hill Top.
