OUR COVER has been designed by
Daphne Lester who has had several
illustrated maps hung in the Milnthorpe Art
Exhibition. This map drawn for our new HLM Parish
News really illustrates how we are linked
together.
The Bells: In 1869 three steel bells were
acquired by St Thomas’ Church and were
given to Levens church in 1912. The three
bells are still at Levens church, not in the
tower but in a timber frame in the
churchyard near the north-west corner of the
church.
The 7th century cross-shaft is situated in
the porch at St Peter’s Church.
St Anthony’s Tower is a landmark seen from
all directions when approaching Milnthorpe.
