Since the last review a few things have been improved regarding access to the church of St Michael and All Angels, Hathersage.
The road up to the church is single track with passing points, but the car park has been enlarged and is well surfaced.
Quick access from the car park is up 5 steps, but there is level access from the car park back along the road to the lytch gate (slightly longer but easier for wheelchair users, prams, or people with mobility issues.
Currently there are two shallow steps into the church; there are plans to re-lay the flagstones, re-surface the pathway, and provide level access through the main porch.
The church is open during daylight hours, offers an historic experience, a well-stocked bookstall (both tourist and Christian), and has a sense of presence and spirituality.
Well worth a visit.

The church looks beautiful. It is such a shame that though we are a Christian country, the church numbers are dwindling. Well done for bringing this place to our attention.

Unusual for historical sites to be so accessible. Would like to know a little more about the church itself:0)
