Welcome to High Church

High Church has a significant place in the religious landscape of Northumberland. The county has a rich history of Anglicanism, and High Church is a prominent strand of this tradition. High Church is characterized by its emphasis on liturgy, sacraments, and the authority of the Church. In Northumberland, High Church has been particularly influential in shaping the religious identity of the region. Many of the county's most historic churches are High Church, and their architecture and decoration reflect this tradition. High Church has also played a key role in the development of religious education and pastoral care in Northumberland.

One of the most notable examples of High Church in Northumberland is the Cathedral Church of St. Nicholas in Newcastle. This magnificent building is a testament to the enduring influence of High Church in the region. The cathedral's architecture and decoration are richly symbolic, reflecting the High Church emphasis on the sacraments and the authority of the Church. The cathedral is also home to a vibrant community of worshippers, who are committed to preserving the traditions of High Church in Northumberland. The cathedral is a place of pilgrimage for many Anglicans, and its influence extends far beyond the borders of the county.

High Church has also had a significant impact on the cultural life of Northumberland. The region has a rich tradition of choral music, and many of the county's choirs are affiliated with High Church. These choirs perform a wide range of music, from traditional hymns to contemporary compositions, and their performances are a highlight of the cultural calendar in Northumberland. High Church has also inspired a number of artists and writers in the region, who have drawn on the rich symbolism and traditions of the tradition in their work. Overall, High Church has played a vital role in shaping the religious and cultural identity of Northumberland, and its influence is likely to endure for many years to come.
