    We stopped here to visit William Wordsworth's burial site, but decided to go inside the church…read morebecause from the outside, I could see there are stained glass windows, and I always have to go inside a church, because I'm a Catholic, and would like to go inside & say a little prayer. You just have to stop here, trust me, it is beautiful! So much love, from the people who take care of the church, a church this old, you find no neglect anywhere! Just a perfect size church for this little England village! I took plenty of photos inside, but sadly, I did not take a photo of the church from the outside. (Why? There was a person in front of me and he was just standing there, so I said, I'll take it later, instead I took a photo of the sign, and left without taking the church!) The church bell tower at exactly 2:30pm, made one big CLANG! That bells reminds me of our church, in my province. It would be nice to experience what it was like to attend a small village church, the church that William Wordsworth worshiped when he was alive. The bridge, & the water under the bridge flowed exactly like the bridge, even the trees above the hill, everything there are SO MUCH like my memories of the ones by my house!

    This beautiful church hosts one of Grasmere's premier attractions: the gravesite of William and…read moreMary Wordsworth. It has a lovely walking path, benches to rest your feet for a moment and beautiful scenery. This location is a must-see for all visitors to Grasmere. The church itself is beautiful, and definitely worth a visit. I didn't have the opportunity to attend a service, though I wish I could have.
