Delightful church at the centre of this special village in the Yorkshire Dales.

The church as we see it now dates from the Saxon period but the original church was probably Celtic, right beside the sea with views across Morecambe Bay to the mountains of Cumbria and containing many important artifacts including the world famous Hog Back Stone, a Viking grave stone.

A little church with a long name, the walls are made of reused Roman stones, we are only a mile or so south of the wall.

Our small stone church has an interesting history, a peaceful churchyard and attractive views.

The church is a grade I listed building dating to the late 12th century and early 13th century.

Hexham Abbey is one of the earliest seats of Christianity in England, welcoming visitors to our site for more than 1300 years, with a host of historical artefacts and treasures visitors feel inspired by the sense of heritage, worship and community unique to this beautiful place.

The church stands proudly at the confluence of the north and south Tyne, boasting a remarkable Saxon tower and stunning Kempe stained glass windows.

The church sits quietly on a hill top amongst the trees near to the ruins of the ancient listed Grade I Monastic Grange and it is on the route of the Northern Saints Trails and the Roof of England long distance trail.

Built 1150-1250, although of Saxon origin, which is associated with John Wyclif and contains more medieval stained glass than anywhere else in County Durham, with the exception of the Cathedral.

Built c1188; original south wall and chancel arch, priest's door and leper window.

Sited in a scenic location in the Yorkshire Dales, with a view up the Stainmore pass through the high Pennines, it sits almost equidistant between the market towns of Barnard Castle and Richmond; at the heart of the community of Hutton Magna.

Thanks to the powerful Neville family this once humble Saxon church was altered and enlarged until it was completed at the end of the 14th century, which is the last time any major work was done on it.
