| hearsay:- |
The church was built as a chapel to St Mary's Church, Wigton, designed by Charles
Eaglesfield, Maryport, and dedicated in 1865. The design is the then fashioable Vicorian
Early English style. The parish of Waverton-cum-Dundraw was established in 1902, and
this became the parish church. |
