In 1798/9 the builder/architect John Dodds rebuilt the church entirely in late Georgian style, with substantial alterations in 1818/20 overseen by the well-known Newcastle architect, John Dobson. Since then there have been numerous adaptations and enlargements but the building remains essentially as Dodds and Dobson planned it and lends itself to well-done traditional Anglican worship.

O2 are proposing to install a 15mtr
mast outside the church !
That's a shame but then again if we all use a mobile phone then I can't really see how we could complain.
