St Cuthbert's Church, Billingham
An aerial view of St Cuthbert's Church in Billingham, County Durham. It is believed that a church has stood on this spot in Billingham since 845 AD in the Saxon era. It is described as the ''mother church'' of the town and it is located on Billingham Green. However, due to a lack of funding and a decline in its congregation, the future of the church is under threat. As seen in Billingham, County Durham, on July 8, 2024. (Photo by MI News/NurPhoto)
