St Ninian's Catholic Church, Wooler

St Ninian’s church is a Catholic place of worship situated on Burnhouse Road in the town of Wooler in Northumberland, England.

The church was opened by Bishop Hogarth on 24 June 1856, it was described at the time by the Catholic publication “The Tablet” as ‘a severely simple building in harmony with the wild scenery around it’.

Changes to the church over the years have included a reordering of the Sanctuary by Father Timney in 1974 and the glazing of the wooden tracery screen below the west gallery in 2012.

The south west tower has a multi moulded pointed arch doorway with paired lancet windows at bell level, topped off by a steeply sloping roof with quatrefoils in the gables.

The east window and the glass in the south aisle is by William Wailes and includes one dedicated to the architect George Goldie and his wife Madeleine de Kersadier and another which depicts Saint Ninian.
