URPoint Details
The Church of St Laurence is a mediaeval church in the Diocese of Durham and is Grade I listed. The present building dates from around 1100, and is known for its 12th century north arcade with twisted columns and zig-zag patterns and wall-paintings. In a Victorian restoration by Ignatius Bonomi in 1846-7, the chancel was extended, and the aisle walls, porch and chancel were rebuilt.
