Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox church The Church of St Helen is a Church of England parish church in St Helen Auckland, County Durham. It is a Grade I listed building.
History
The church dates to the late 12th century and early 13th century.[1] The oldest surviving part of the church, the two easternmost bays of the nave, were built in 1120.[2] A low-pitched roof was added when the roof was rebuilt in the 15th century.[1] At the turn of the 16th century, a clerestory and battlements were built.[2] The original door to the church remains, making it "one of the oldest doors in England".[2]
On 21 April 1952, the church was designated a grade I listed building.[1]
In 2001, a restoration of the church took place. This involved renewing the floor, replacing the fixed pews with new movable ones, limewashing the walls, and repointing masonry. It cost £170,000.[3]
Present day
The Parish of St. Helen Auckland is part of the Archdeaconry of Auckland in the Diocese of Durham.[1]
The parish stands in the Traditional Catholic tradition of the Church of England.[4] As the parish rejects the ordination of women, it receives alternative episcopal oversight from the Bishop of Beverley (currently Stephen Race),[5] and it is affiliated with The Society.[6]
