St Cuthbert's Beltingham Northumberland

15th century church in a beautiful Northumberland village. The lychgate was donated by the Hon. Francis Bowes-Lyon together with land adjoining in 1904. The church was renovated in 1812 and 1884 and remains in excellent condition. It is the only church in Northumberland built in the Perpendicular style. It is named after Saint Cuthbert who was thought to have preached here and whose body rested here overnight when fleeing the Vikings after 875. The window by Evetts (1981) is based on manuscripts from 12th century telling Bede's story of Saint Cuthbert. Church is generally open but only weekends in Winter
