St Peter's church, Croft on Tees
A long, low medieval building, described by Pevsner as being made of red sandstone, which would be an odd choice as the nearby outcrops of Permian sandstone are not renowned as a building material.

Milbanke Pew, St Peter's Church, Croft-on-Tees
This astonishing raised pew on Tuscan columns, complete with red curtains, erected some time before 1680 for the Milbanke family, dominates the church and towers above the pulpit (out of sight to the right). Neither Cox (Bench-Ends in English Churches): "...extraordinary and essentially vulgar...preposterous balustraded staircase...struck us as the most ghastly, and almost profane pew in the kingdom..." nor Pevsner "...this presumptuous piece..." were impressed. When I visited the church, the pew was evidently being used as a junk store. The string of tea-cup decorations were for a "mad hatter's tea party."
