Christ Church (and hall attached), Shieldfield Green, Newcastle upon Tyne - Newcastle upon Tyne

Parish church of 1859-61, by AB Higham, constructed of squared sandstone with ashlar dressings and Welsh slate roofs. Funding, through the National Lottery Heritage Fund and Historic England Repair Grants for Places of Worship scheme, allowed a first phase of roof repairs above the nave and the aisles to be completed in 2015. The roofs above the chancel, the Lady Chapel and the organ chamber are coming to the end of their life and the valley gutter between the nave and the south aisle is not discharging satisfactorily; water ingress is damaging internal plaster work and ceilings.
