St Michael and all Angles, Ainstable, Cumbria, England



St Michael and all Angles, Ainstable

One half-mile east of the river Eden is the village of Ainstable. Its Viking name was Einstapli. Later it was variously spelled Ainstaple, Eynstable or Aynstapelith. The name supposedly evolved from 'On-Steep-Hill', related to the small hill on which the village sits close to the Pennine moors.
The village church, St Michael, sits on land where an earlier church and a nunnery were. It is a rebuilding of 1872. The church is made up of a nave and chancel. A small square tower at the north-west end has been demolished. Inside the church are a Norman pillar piscina and effigies dating back to the early 15th century. The churchyard is set off by a lych-gate.
