St Bartholomew's Church Arkendale

Welcome 

The church stands at the centre of this small attractive village on an important site, being the highest point in the village and the junction of the two village streets. A religious building has stood here since the 14th Century, although the present building dates only from 1836, but interestingly, it was the first church to be consecrated in the then new Diocese of Ripon, in January 1837. 

The Church is open daily 10am-5pm and everyone is welcome to visit - please do sign our visitors book.

A warm welcome will be shown to anyone wanting to visit the Church, or if you would like to attend our Church Services. Providing the community with a variety of Sunday services to attend, dependent on your preferred method of worship; from formal Holy Communions and Benefice Communions and village service.
