Church of St Peter ad Vincula, Medieval church in Thornaby, England
The Church of St Peter ad Vincula stands on elevated ground east of the River Tees, featuring Norman Romanesque architecture with a single room design.
Originally dedicated to St Mary Magdalene in the 12th century, the church maintained connections with Guisborough Priory and received its current name in 1908.
The columns and roof of the church display crossed leaves patterns, representing architectural elements uncommon in North Yorkshire religious buildings.
The church building accommodates 80 people and holds Sunday Morning prayer services at 9 a.m., led by Vicar Stephen Durham.
Two ancient stones remain fixed to the exterior wall, one bearing runic inscriptions and another featuring carved designs from earlier periods.
