St Andrew's is one of the churches for a parish that includes the local Kildwick and Farnhill villages, the villages of Cononley and Bradley - and also a great deal of Cross Hills and the surrounding industrial and trading centres. We are a friendly group of Christians who meet regularly to worship together and to share each other's company. Do come and join us!
The church has stood on this iconic spot since, maybe, the ninth or tenth century. Built by the monks of Eastby Abbey, the current building has been added to - first by Eastby Abbey and then by its successors at Bolton Abbey. It is an extraordinarily long building. That's why locals call it "The Lang Kirk of Craven".

Our parish of Kildwick, Cononley and Bradley is committed to safeguarding children, young people and adults from harm. We follow the House of Bishops guidance and policies and have our own Parish Safeguarding Officer (PSO). Our Diocese of Leeds’s safeguarding pages contain vital links and information including contacts for the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor who advises our PSO. If you are concerned that a child or adult has been harmed or may be at risk of harm please contact the PSO Geraldine Sands, or the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor (contact details for both available by clicking 'Read more' below). If you have immediate concerns about the safety of someone, please contact the police and your local authority’s children or adult social care services.
