More about this scene
Described as the quietest spot in the dale, this is where Benedictine nuns chose to build their priory in 1158. The Dissolution forced closure in 1539, and the chancel now lies in ruins. The nave was rebuilt in 1811. Since being made redundant, the church has now been converted to an outdoors adventure centre for young people.

Marrick eh!! Well I lived there 18 years. Had some good times. My dad was a farmer, John Metcalfe. We lived at Graham House. I got married in 1988 and left for the better life not!! I'd give anything to live in there again with my children. Have loads of memories, way too many to list. I do wonder who still lives there I'd know. Anyone wants to get in touch, email me sharonmetcalfe@hotmail.co.uk
