Parish History[edit | edit source]
HAYDON, a chapelry, in the parish of Warden, union of Hexham, N. W. division of Tindale ward, S. division of Northumberland, 7 miles (W.) from Hexham, 27 (W.) from Newcastle-upon-Tyne, and 30 (E.) from Carlisle. The village of Haydon-Bridge, situated on both sides of the South Tyne river, is in this chapelry. The present chapel, dedicated to St. Cuthbert, and forming a chapel of ease, was built in 1796, on a new site, near the north end of the bridge. There are places of worship for Independents and Wesleyans. The chapel of Langley stood on the south side of the river, perhaps on the ground called Chapel Hill.
