St Peter's Church, Humshaugh
Welcome to St. Peter's Church, Humshaugh, a peaceful and prayerful rural church.
We have regular services most Sundays and hope you may be able to join us for Worship.
The church was built in 1818 by the Greenwich Hospital, one of several churches in the area in which ex-Naval Chaplains were settled after the Napoleonic Wars. There are many original features, and a short guide - and a trail for the children! - are available to help you enjoy your visit.
Worshipping or just visiting you are very welcome here!
Our own services are shown on these pages, but as part of Bellingham Deanery we are also sharing together in worship over this beautiful part of Northumberland. Please check our Services page, or the link to 'The Broadsheet' further down in our pages for news of services elsewhere.
For more information contact our Priest in Charge: Revd Canon Sarah Lunn : [email protected]

St Mungo
St. Mungo’s is the mother church for what was known as the `the Great Parish of Simonburn’, at one time the largest parish in England. A beautiful 13th century church with remnants of older buildings going back to the 8th century. Founded by St. Mungo in the 6th century when he was chased out of Glasgow by a pagan king, he came and baptised in the stream that still runs past the church. We are a very rural community, one small village with surrounding farms and settlements and our older parishioners remember coming to church by pony or in a horse drawn cart.
A gem of a classic rural English church with an award winning tearoom across the village green.
The parish of Simonburn is committed to the safeguarding of children, young people and adults. We follow the House of Bishops guidance and policies and have our own Parish Safeguarding Officer(s), PSOs. The Diocese of Newcastle’s safeguarding pages contain vital links and information including contacts for the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor (DSA) who advise our PSOs. If you are concerned that a child or adult has been harmed or may be at risk of harm please contact the DSA. If you have immediate concerns about the safety of someone, please contact the police and your local authority Children or Adults Services.
