This is the Church of England Church in Cheswardine village. It is made of red sandstone, which is locally quarried. This is the third church built on the site, and was last rebuilt in 1886 to 1889 through the benevolence of Charles Donaldson-Hudson, the patron of the church and resident of Cheswardine Hall. The tower was not rebuilt, but St Katherine's chapel was moved further north and east.
