Former church, Allenheads
The building, which replaced an earlier church of 1701, was built in the mid-1820s and was the family chapel of the Beaumonts, Northumberland landowners. The Beaumont-Blackett family owned one of the two main mining companies that operated in Weardale, Alston Moor and Allendale (the other was the London Lead Company) http://www.durhamintime.org.uk/durham_miner/weardale_lead_mining.pdf . It is now a private house.
The building is Grade II listed https://www.historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1042964 .
