Overview
Historic England lists the parish church as 1869 by R. J. Johnson, with a south aisle of 1907 (NHLE 1025247; listed 26 February 1985). It is snecked limestone rubble with sandstone ashlar quoins and dressings and high-pitched Welsh slate roofs, in Early English style: nave with south aisle and south porch, chancel with a three-sided apse, and a north transept. A hexagonal timber bellcote with a Welsh slate spirelet sits above the chancel. The interior has a two-bay south arcade; paintings of the Garden of Gethsemane by J. Eadie Read of Newcastle (c.1914) in the spandrels; apse paintings of Christ on the Cross and Christ in Majesty by Michael Hoare of Folkestone (1967); and a two-light west war-memorial window by L. C. Evetts of Newcastle (1948). Sitelines records that the churchyard was never used for burials. The parish is Cleadon All Saints.
