Nether Denton: St Cuthbert - Church Heritage Record 607062
-
Description
The church was built in 1868 to the design of Cory and Ferguson in Early English style through the patronage of George Mounsey. It replaced an earlier building(s) of which no trace survives. Churches have been associated with this site since the twelfth century. The church is substantially built from salvaged Roman stone from the Stanegate Fort. Unfortunately all of the exposed faces were hammered in 1868 to give a uniform appearance, removing the original Roman worked surfaces. The interior is attractive with the large chancel arch loosely linking the nave to the choir and presbytery to form an almost single volume of space. The chancel roof is particularly striking with its twisted timber barrel vaulting..... -
