The church, in 2008

St Michael's Church is the parish church of Sawley, North Yorkshire, a village in England.

A church was built in Sawley by the owners of Sawley Hall, described in 1871 as a "plain stone oblong building, with a belfry and one bell".[1] In 1879 it was replaced by the current building, on the same site but larger than its predecessor. It was designed by Edward Birchall and cost about £2,000. It is in the Decorated Gothic style, and is built of local stone, with a slate roof. The font was retained from the old building.[2][3]
