	This is The North East \| CommuniGate \| Mining at Escomb
		The churchyard grass belonged to the vicar, Escombe village formed a circle around the church and it was very pretty,lovley gardens and orchards.
		Escombe was famous for its plums and there was a Plum Fair held every year on the village green.My father rememberd these-the plumbs were damsons and there are still trees about in the orchard.
		Escombe has its own quarry, many of the houses are built from the stones.There was a pinfold (an enclosure for cattle).

		The church was probably built towards the end of the 7th Century, and was most recently restored in 1965.

		Within the wall stands Escomb church, first used for worship in the closing years of the seventh century.
		The fabric of the church is almost all as the Saxons built it, with many pieces of building stone having been salvaged from a nearby ruined Roman encampment, some of them bearing Latin inscriptions to prove it.
		Like Iona, Escomb is a thin place, where centuries of worship have hallowed the surroundings, and only the most insensitive of folk would not feel how little separates heaven and earth.

		"The village of Escomb is situated on the south bank of the Wear, about a mile and a half west from Bishop Auckland, and consists of a collection of poor cottages.
		It is situated in the very middle of the old village, surrounded by its burying-ground, by open spaces next to that, and then by houses on all sides.
		There is a picture (28 kbytes) of the Saxon church at Escomb; supplied by Richard Hird.

	Escomb Saxon Church
		Most are agreed from the general shape and style of the building that it could not have been constructed later than the end of the seventh century and that it belongs to the earliest period of Northumbrian Christianity.
		The use of stone and the efforts made in transport and construction suggest that Escomb was a religious centre of some importance.
		The farm is now pebble dashed and looks fairly modern, but its origins go back many centuries and in Curry's description of Escomb in the mid nineteenth century there is a report of the priest-in- charge of the chapelry, stabling his horse at Peacock's Farm, as it was known then.

		Originally it was established by the Church to serve as an all age school, having two parts, one for boys and one for girls.
		The school buildings are surrounded by fields on three sides and have a single row of houses to the North leading to the village.
		Owing to the parochial and insular nature of the local community we have felt it necessary to develop opportunities for children to enrich their 'global' experiences in a number of ways.

	The Great North East: Escomb Church in Bishop Auckland - Newcastle and Gateshead City Guide local history
		The first mystery about Escomb is that we cannot tell for certain just who built the church; when it was built; or why it was built in this particular location.
		The first written reference to the village of 'Edicum' dates to the end of the 10th century when the village was mortgaged by the Bishop of Durham to some Viking earls (it was later returned).
		Some suggest that the general shape and style of the building mean that it could not have been constructed later than the end of the 7th century and that it belongs to the earliest period of Northumbria Christianity.

		But the all-pervading sense of awe and mystery made this Orthodox pilgrim think it would be quite easy for us to walk in and serve a Liturgy in the manner similar to those who built it 1300 years ago.
		About the same time as Escomb was being built, not very far away St. Benedict Biscop was busy constructing the twin monasteries at Wearmouth and Jarrow (in 674 and 682 respectively).
		By contrast they both have the feel of a more western style of architecture and because St. Benedict Biscop was a devotee of Roman ways, may have from the start, not followed Celtic practice in worship.

		Escomb is the best preserved of the three early Northumbrian churches (Monkwearmouth, Jarrow, Escomb) pictured here.
		It is generally thought to have been built in the late seventh century, though, since Bede does not mention it in his Ecclesiastical History, completed in 737, some say it is later.
		The chancel itself, about ten feet square, has been somewhat spoiled by the addition of the large nineteenth-century window.
