Brampton Old Church, Norman church in Brampton, England

The red sandstone structure features a Norman window, a chancel with a piscina, and an aumbry dating from the twelfth century.

Built on the site of a Roman fort along the Stanegate Roman road, the church incorporated stones from nearby Hadrian's Wall in its construction.

The original parish church of Brampton served as a central gathering place until 1878, when St Martin's Church in town assumed this role.

Located one mile west of Brampton town center, the church building includes iron gates, oak doors, and a porch added in 1861.

The church maintains its twelfth-century chancel while its tower and nave were removed between 1787 and 1789, leaving a modified structure.
