St Margaret's Tower Staveley Until 150 years ago the Parish Church of Staveley was St. Margaret's, now all that remains is the clock tower. It stands in the centre of Staveley in our open churchyard. The Churchyard is maintained by volunteers who gather on a Wednesday morning, in all weathers!

St James Church, Staveley In the 1860s Staveley's 14th century church was replaced with a new one on a different site. Only the tower of the old church survives. The new church was designed by the architect, J. S. Crowther of Manchester, in Early English style. The foundation stone was laid on 24 September 1863 by General Upton, acting on behalf of Hon. Mrs Howard, the Lady of the Manor.

It was consecrated by the Bishop of Carlisle, Rt Revd Samuel Waldegrave on 24 April 1865 at which point the only outstanding item was the spirelet.
