The church of St. Cuthbert, entirely rebuilt in 1868, at the expense of the trustee to the Kildale estate, aided by private subscriptions, is an edifice of stone, in the Early English style, consisting of chancel, nave, north aisle, south porch and a western tower, with a low spire, containing one bell: in pulling down the old church several gravestones were found bearing the arms of the Percys, formerly lords of the manor, the carving being very sharp, but the inscriptions illegible; these stones were in 1888 standing in the porch: many weapons, such as swords and daggers, one of which appears to be Danish, were also found indigging the foundations of the new church: a new organ was erected in 1888: there are 200 sittings.
