The Chapel, dedicated to St. Margaret, is a neat structure, entirely rebuilt in 1749, with the exception of some portion of the chancel. A handsome square embattled tower, with clock, was added in 1853, at the expense of John Eden, Esq., of Beamish Hall; and the structure now consists of nave, aisles, chancel, and tower. There are sittings for 700 persons. [Whellan's History, Topography and Directory of Durham (and Newcastle) (1856), page 882.]
