St Brandon's is stunning: it's over 900 years old but recently and beautifully restored after a fire in 1998.

Though the earliest written records go back to the 12th century, it is believed that a Christian church has stood here for over 1300 years.

This is a charming little church, simple and welcoming with a history going back eight hundred years or more.

The church of St Michael & All Angels is situated on a hill in the ancient parish of Arthuret and overlooks the market town of Longtown with fine views of the surrounding countryside.

The year 1750 is embossed in lead on the porch doorway and services are held once every fortnight. Inside there is a warm and welcoming atmosphere of a traditional country chapel complete with a pot bellied stove. Sheep and cattle graze in the next field and dry stone walls bound a woodland fringe and hay meadows. It is a place of peace and tranquillity.</span></span></p>

Set in a tranquil rural landscape, surrounded by fields and overlooked by Hadrian's Wall, Lanercost forms a magnificent and fascinating complex of historic buildings.

Blanchland got its name from the white habits worn by monks of the Premonstratensian order who founded Blanchland Abbey.

This tiny church is in fact the remnants of the original church of the village of Upleatham, northwest of Whitby.

The church is a Grade II* listed building.

A casualty of Henry VIII's Dissolution of the Monasteries, the only remaining part of the 12th century Premonstratensian Blanchland Abbey is part of the abbey church which today serves the parish of Blanchland.
