Church of St. Andrew, Hartburn


St Andrew's is the Parish Church in Hartburn in Northumberland. The church has a Pre-Conquest core, including an 11th century tower and chancel. Aisles were added and the chancel was extended in the early 13th century. The church was restored in 1843 and again in 1890.[1] Inside the church, the stone font dates from around 1250. Two swords above a Maltese Cross on the doorpost indicate links with the Knights Templar. There is also a Cromwellian money box and Peninsular War flags on display.[2] St. Andrew's Church is Grade I listed on the National Heritage List for England. The noted antiquarian John Hodgson (1779–1845), who wrote The History of Northumberland (6 volumes), was vicar here from 1833; he died in 1845 and was burried at Hartburn.
