Facilities at St Mary's Church

Car Parking

On- street parking on both sides of church. Easiest is the 'top road'- the old Durham Road. Park along the road and walk through the churchyard to our main door. This is also easiest for wheelchairs due to a section of loose chippings on the other side of church. Please DO NOT park between the stone columns. This is an entry for emergency vehicles- please keep it clear. You can also park on North Street/ South Street on the main village side of church. park half on the pavement to allow plenty of room for buses. This is nearer to church but there is a rough stone chipping patch before the churchyard. If you need to drive to the church door with heavy items you can only do so by appointment.

Ramped Entrance

Our main door can open wide enough for wheelchairs both manual and electric.

We have a 'T' setting hearing loop and our celebrants wear personal microphones.
