St Maurice Ellingham Northumberland
Location
Ellingham
Northumberland
NE67 5EX
A Grade II listed building, one of at least 4/5 churches which have existed on this site since 1150 (possibly earlier), the existing structure incorporates parts of an earlier Norman church. Unusual in that it is one of only a few churches in England to be named after the Roman officer who along with his companions was martyred in the 3rd Century in Switzerland for refusing pagan sacrifices and refusing to attack the innocent.
A heraldic window by Evetts (1968) is a memorial to Rev E E B May (vicar) 1927-1952.
The church is generally open.
