Welcome ...

to the Parish Church of Saint Mary and Saint Cuthbert, one of the oldest in the North of England. It was here that the Bible was first translated into English.

There has been a Christian worshipping community here since 883AD, when monks from Lindisfarne, bearing the body of Saint Cuthbert, built a shrine which became, for more than a century, the Cathedral of the Kingdom of Northumbria.
