With origins in the 12th century, St Lawrence's Church in Appleby is a marvellous building. The organ is of particular note. A gift from Carlisle Cathedral in 1683, it is the oldest working English organ in the country.

It was one of many churches and castles restored by Lady Anne Clifford during the 17th century. Her coffin can be found here, along with a memorial.

Appleby Castle and Caesar's Tower

Highlight • Historical Site

This magnificent castle, standing proud above the Eden Valley, was built at the behest of William II after he had driven the Scots out of Westmorland in 1092. Caesar's Tower is the oldest part of the building, the top of which gives splendid views of the surrounding countryside.

Like so many in the region, the castle was owned by the Cliffords. The great hall once displayed 'the Great Picture', a triptych showing Lady Anne as a teenager on the left, then as an elder on the right, with her family in the middle. The artwork is now on display at the Abbot Hall Gallery and Museum, Kendal.
