Church

The church of St. Mary, destroyed by fire, March 9, 1878, was rebuilt in 1880, at a cost of £2,800, and consecrated June 21 of that year; it is an edifice in the Gothic style, designed by Hodgson Fowler, consisting of chancel, nave, north chapel and a turret contining one bell: there are 340 sittings. The register dates from the year 1820. The living is a vicarage, net yearly value £350, with residence, in the gift of the Bishop of Durham, and held since 1923 by the Rev. Gerald Wreford-Brown M.A. of Oriel College, Oxford. [Kelly's Durham Directory (1925) page 297.]
