The early history of the Church and Parish of Loweswater is lost in antiquity. The earliest mention is about the middle of the 12th century, when Loweswater is reputed to have been the estate of Randolphus de Lindsay, who at the same time gave a church at Loweswater to the Priory of St. Bees. Monks from St Bees used to go to Loweswater to take services and the dead from Loweswater used to be carried via the 'Corpse Road' through Holmewood for burial at St. Bees. The old bell dates from 14th century, being one of the first cast in Cumberland. The Church was consecrated on 24th August, 1829 by the Right Revd John Bird Sumner, Bishop of Chester later becoming the Archbishop of Canterbury.
