The nave with its small round-headed Norman windows is mainly 13th-century. The chancel is later; it and its arch ("a fine piece of Norman work" according to Arthur Mee) were restored in 1866. Remnants of a Roman altar can be seen in the church. The modern collage on the left depicts the patron St Cuthbert with his right hand uplifted in blessing. St Cuthbert's is listed Grade II* https://britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/101100260-church-of-st-cuthbert-great-salkeld
