St Mary the Virgin, Otley

Welcome to St Mary's.

The present church was built in the 13th century in the gothic style. The tower houses a peal of six bells which are regularly rung for services. Notably, the vestry houses a full immersion baptistry which was installed by the Victorians. This can be viewed on request. Our kitchen will provide refreshments at certain services and we have disabled access and a toilet. The Church is surrounded by rolling countryside and an extensive network of rural footpaths. We are open everyday for your quiet prayers and meditation.
