A medieval church and Knights Templar chapel.

Beautiful tranquil rural setting overlooking river Tees, on walking and cycling routes.

The priory was founded in the 12th century, but the Perpendicular features of the present church date from a 1480s rebuilding by Bishop Alcock of Worcester after he visited the priory to investigate its poor state.

Tiny, remote and very rural, the church here has a great treasure: a Norman tympanum showing the Lamb of God flanked by a griffin and a winged bull.

A church with a variety of notable architectural features from the 12th to the 20th centuries , with fine timber framed roof, ‘Grocer Pews’ linking with the Grocers’ Company local school now the present Elms School, and links with founder of the MU Mary Sumner married here.

Lovely church bursting with local history and a quirky architectural take on Gothic styling, truly a footprint in time.

From the churchyard there is a beautiful view over the little Glem Valley to the hall, seat of the Poleys (pronounced Pooley).

Nestled in the countryside, there is, sadly, no historical truth in the legend that the two churches of Antingham in one churchyard were built by two sisters. The pretty church of St Mary and the atmospheric ivy clad ruin of St Margaret.
