Church of St Cuthbert, Church Street, Haydon - Northumberland (UA)

The church was erected in 1796 by the Greenwich Hospital Trustees, to whom the Derwentwater estates passed in the C18. It has an elegant west tower, narrower than the nave, which is topped by a pagoda-like roof. A north transept was added in 1869 to accommodate children from the Shaftoe Trust School. The chancel was enlarged, and other alterations made, in 1898. There is structural movement in the transept and rainwater ingress. There is a proposal to address the subsidence of the north Vestry Wall and associated repairs works.
