Church of St Helen, St Helen Auckland

[1] The oldest surviving part of the church, the two easternmost bays of the nave, were built in 1120.

[1] At the turn of the 16th century, a clerestory and battlements were built.

[2] On 21 April 1952, the church was designated a grade I listed building.

This involved renewing the floor, replacing the fixed pews with new movable ones, limewashing the walls, and repointing masonry.

[4] As the parish rejects the ordination of women, it receives alternative episcopal oversight from the Bishop of Beverley (currently Stephen Race),[5] and it is affiliated with The Society.
