Church, 50 metres north east of Croxdale Hall, Croxdale Hall, Croxdale and Hett - County Durham (UA)
Medieval former church with nave dating back to late C11 and chancel to late C12, on the Croxdale Estate. Altered in later centuries but Norman south doorway contains the original door with iron hinges. Planning approval was granted in 2021 for change of use to a civil wedding venue and repair works were undertaken with a grant from the Covid-19 Emergency Heritage at Risk Response Fund (roof abutments; masonry repair; lime washing and repairs to the ceiling). There are still unresolved damp issues currently being investigated.
