Additional notes

Original chapel started in 1875 as mausoleum for John and Josephine Bowes (of Bowes Museum) but it was not completed and left as a ruin. A smaller church in the town was built using the original stonework by W Ellison Fenwicke (and not in Taking Stock).

Search churches

You can look for churches using the search boxes or on the pins on the map. Each entry gives the architect and location, and the icons on the left show listing status. Where available, we have included links to more detailed online information about the building, such as the English Heritage listing description. We hope you will find some of your own favourites here and discover some new buildings too.
