View east in St Mary's Church
Norman Scarfe in his Shell Guide of 1983 notes the "pantheon effect created by elliptically-headed recesses (keystoned) alongside the windows and overcast with the gloom of the Victorian chancel." The Georgian nave is of 1737, the project of Dingley Askham, and the chancel was rebuilt in 1870 in 13th-century style by William Milner Fawcett, the Cambridge military architect; he also designed the present nave ceiling in 1904. The east window showing the Crucifixion is the work of the Geordie glazier William Wailes.
St Mary's is listed Grade II*
