A winged soul at St Michael?s
A closer look at this interesting old stone. The carving represents the departed’s soul rising up to Heaven. Unfortunately, the sunken stone was too weathered to make out any other information.

Church of St Michael & All Angels, Ainstable - May 2017 (1)
Built on an imposing site overlooking the village of Ainstable, the current Church of St Michael & All Angels dates from 1872. It replaced a late 18th Century Church, which itself was built on a site of worship dating back to Norman times.
The Church is open daily (closed from 16.00), a Guide Book is available and donations are welcome. There are many imposing internal features including Victorian stained glass and an 1888 installed rood screen. This will be covered in a future visit.
More information on the Church can be found on the Diocese of Carlisle web site at: http://www.carlislediocese.org.uk/church/ainstable-st-michael-all-angels.html
The Church is Grade II listed.
