St. Mary's Parish Church, Belford is a listed Grade 2 building, situated on a hill overlooking the village. A chapel has stood on this site since the 12th century. The current building was extensively remodelled in the early 19th century.
Sunday morning worship is usually 9.00 am with sung Eucharist, but on fifth Sundays we join with our sister parish of St. Hilda, Lucker at 10.00 am, alternating between churches. A mid-week said Eucharist or Morning Prayer is usually offered on Wednesday mornings at 9.00 am, but this may move to a different day when appropriate.
Access is usually up a steep path from the Market Placer, however easier access is located off North Bank opposite Clarke Place.
Everyone is always welcome.
