MartinC said,
That is very unusual! The tower and steeple look modern while the rest of the church looks a lot older.

It’s to do with Northumbria University Chaplaincy, I think, isn’t it?
Antonella said,
Yes, I agree with MartinC. There’s some contrast of styles here. The windows seem more modern compared to the rest of the church and of course the tower looks as if it had been added much later. Nice shot, though. Ciao. A.

MartinC, it does look like that, but from what it says on the link it was built like that and hasn’t been renovated. I’ll try and investigate sometime!
Steve, if you click through, there are Northumbria Uni chaplaincy offices and also charity offices as well as it being a church - busy building!
I’ll definitely have to investigate Antonella. WIll report back soon as I can :)
