Escomb Saxon Church 

Renewal of Porch Exhibition

The church is situated in the centre of the village of Escomb, near Bishop Auckland in County Durham and  stands amongst trees on an ancient Celtic site.

The Parochial Church Council project involved the dismantling of  their old porch exhibition and replacing it with a  new purpose designed graphic display panels.

It is hoped that the new porch exhibition will interpret the historical and archaeological significance of this ancient and unique little church; not only for the education of the local community, but also for students and school children, as well as for religious groups and the thousands of visitors from far and wide.
