Summary

St Aidan's Church, Bamburgh. St. Aidan's Church is one of the three finest parish churches in Northumberland (others being Alnwick and Norham). Origins date from 635 AD when St. Aidan came to Lindisfarne from Iona. The present building is 13th Century; the chancel is said to be the second longest in the country (60ft), and contains magnificent reredos in Caen stone.
