A stunning church, welcoming and steeped in history. Has to be worth a visit if ever in Middleton. Also have a wander around the graveyard and Old Kankys.

This is a fabulous place to stroll along when the weather is OK - but it can get windy. If the weather isn't OK, then it's a fabulous place to drive to because the journey takes you over some bleak but beautiful moorland. Presuming you DO take a walk, then once your legs are tired, you need to drive to Hebden Bridge for a coffee/pint and a bite to eat because there's NOTHING at the Edge itself !
