The church was established to house the body of Cuthbert of Lindisfarne, Bishop of Lindisfarne from 684 to 687. After his death he became one of the most venerated saints of the time, with a significant cultus and the Venerable Bede writing both a verse and prose biography of him. So when driven out of Lindisfarne by Viking raids in 875 the monks took St Cuthbert's coffin along with other valuable items. They wandered for seven years before eventually settling at Chester-le-Street (then called Cunecaster or Conceastre), at the site of the old Roman fort of Concangis, in 883,[1] on land granted to them by Guthred.[2][3]
They built a wooden church and shrine for St Cuthbert's relics, dedicating it to St Mary and St Cuthbert. Though there was no shortage of stone in the ruins of Concangis they did not build a stone church; it has been suggested they did not intend to stay for as long as they eventually did. It was built within the Roman fort, which although abandoned over five hundred years before may have still offered some protection,[4] as well as access north and south along Cade's Road and to the sea by the River Wear.
This was also a cathedral as it contained the seat of the bishop, for the diocese (sometimes known as Lindisfarne and sometimes as Cuncacestre the Latin name for Chester-le-Street) stretching between the boundaries of Danelaw at Teesside in the south, of Alba at Lothian in the north and the Irish sea in the west. The bishop's authority was confirmed by Alfred the Great,[5] and for the next 112 years the community was based here, visited by kings Æthelstan and Edmund, who both left gifts for the community, to add to the treasures brought from Lindisfarne.
Most notable among their treasures were the Lindisfarne Gospels, created in Lindisfarne around 715. While here they were translated from Latin into English, sometime between 947 and 968, by bishop Aldred writing a gloss in Old English above the text, making them the oldest surviving English translation of the Gospels.[6][7][8] The Gospels and St Cuthbert's coffin were here until 995, when renewed Viking raids drove the monks out, to Ripon before returning to the more easily defended Durham,[9] where they eventually built a stone cathedral around St Cuthbert's remains.[10] The wooden church remained in place until replaced by a stone church in the mid 11th century.[4]
Church building[edit]
The oldest parts of the building that can be dated, to 1056 when a stone church was built to replace the wooden shrine to St Cuthbert, are the walls of the chancel and the two largest pillars now near the centre of the nave. The church then would have been a third shorter and much narrower, as wide as the chancel today. Lewis holes visible in two stones on a front buttress show that Roman stone was used in later construction.[11]
The church was extended around 1267 with the nave, the lower part of the tower and east wall with sedilia all dating from this time. In 1286 it was made a collegiate church,[12][13] with a dean, seven canons, five chaplains and three deacons, supported by tithes from extensive endowments throughout a large parish. Around 1383 an anchorage was added in one corner of the church, to be used by six (male) anchorites until 1547, when it was extended. It is now the Ankers House Museum.[14] A 158 feet (48 m) spire and belfry and three bells were added in 1409, one of which is still in use.[12][13]
The collegiate church was dissolved during the reformation and the church became a parish church with reduced wealth and influence. In subsequent years much of the money for building came from donations, with those of the Lumley and Lambton families particularly notable. John Lumley contributed a set of family effigies that now lie along the north wall in 1595. A new south porch was added in 1742, while in 1829 a Lambton family pew by Ignatius Bonomi was added above a new vault (which once held the remains of John Lambton) with an external staircase.[12][13]
In 1862 major restorations were undertaken, and the church became a rectory with the installation of an organ in 1865, later restored by Harrison & Harrison.[15] To celebrate the church's millennium a screen was installed in 1883, along with other alterations. In 1927 a reredos, panelling and a bishop's throne by Sir Charles Nicholson and three panels, Journey of St Cuthbert's body, by his brother Archibald Keightley Nicholson were added. The church became a Grade 1 listed building in 1950, and doors were added to the South Porch in 1964.[12][13]

MIC CADY, JULIA BRITTAIN ET AL Book Number: 71014 Product format: Hardback
Visiting churches and chapels is not just about admiring superb buildings of historic importance. It is about walking into places that have been at the heart of people's lives for centuries. Here are 870 of the most inspiring of these buildings to be found in England, Scotland and Wales. All the chapels and churches in this volume are special. Each is unique in its look, feel, setting, history and objects of interest. For each cluster of churches and/or chapels in the eight regions within this book - the West Country, Southern England, London, Wales, Central England, Eastern England, Northern England and Scotland - one outstanding building has been chosen to reflect all that is best in the churches and chapels of its region. The choice includes remote and little-known buildings as well as famous structures. Each building has been carefully selected by local experts and the National Churches Trust. Feature articles and introductory pages tell their story from the earliest days of Christianity in Britain. Here, for instance, are St Cuthbert, Darlington, which has a complete medieval spire and contrasts strangely with the nearby Friends Meeting House comprising two large chambers, one for men and one for women, separated by large sliding shutters that were raised into the roof space by a winding mechanism that still survives. Here, too, is the remarkable 13th century leaning church of Cwmyoy, which was built on what turned out to be an unstable hillside made up of debris from an Ice Age landslide. The photo is spectacular! There is no end to the delights in this volume. 256 pages 29cm by 22cm in super colour with glossary, list of National Church Trust Contacts and locator maps at the start of each region.

The 12th century church of St Michael and All Angels church, Spennithorne, near Leyburn has found itself at the centre of village lifeduring the week as well as on Sundays following a £65k redevelopment project. During five months of last year, the organ was moved and renewed, pews in the north aisle were removed and a flexible space created , new kitchen and disabled toilet facilities were installed and outside paths were levelled allowing full disability access to the church.
Now St Michael's is the home of the Spennithorne village library, following the ending of mobile library services, and once a week locals flock in for coffee, to change their books and to chat. The regional library service provides the books and changes them every three months and users include pupils from the local church primary school.

Durham is a historic city and the county town of County Durham in North East England. The city lies on the River Wear, to the south-west of Sunderland, south of Newcastle upon Tyne and to the north of Darlington.
Founded over the final resting place of St Cuthbert, its Norman cathedral became a centre of pilgrimage in medieval England. The cathedral and adjacent 11th-century castle were designated a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1986.
The castle has been the home of Durham University since 1832. HM Prison Durham is also located close to the city centre. City of Durham is the name of the civil parish.
