St Cuthbert's Church Marton
Stokesley Road, Marton-in-Cleveland, Middlesbrough, North Yorkshire, TS7 8JU
St Cuthbert's is a church dating from at least 1150. Though extensively rebuilt in 1840s, some early material survives, and it was rebuilt following the Romanesque style of the earlier building.
It was the baptism venue for Captain James Cook and is the final resting place of some of Middlesbrough's Founding Fathers (such as Bolckow and Vaughn.). It is also home to a number of Mousey Thompson pieces. We plan to have a trail highlighting these pieces.
There will also be presentation of recent research into various aspects of the church, done by members of the recently started St Cuthbert's Heritage Discovery Group.
Refreshments will be available for sale in the Parish Centre.

There are no toilets in the church itself, but there are toilets (including accessible toilet and baby-changing areas) in the Parish Centre, c.150m from the church. The church has flat access doors for wheelchairs and pushchairs, but due to the narrow width of the side aisles, these are not accessible. However, the central aisle is wide enough to enable access to the front area of the church. Refreshments are available in the Parish Centre which is wheelchair accessible. There are disabled parking spaces next to the Parish Centre, and also in the small parking area by the Vicarage.
