Roadside shrine to St Lioba, Slack Head
-
Description
"In the church at Beetham is a window commemorating St Lioba, and her life is celebrated each year on September 28. It is thought the Saxon church on the site was named after her. St Lioba was sent to Germany as the leader of a group of nuns in AD748 where she became widely known and respected.
