Welcome to the Church of St. Mary Magdalene, Hart Village, Hartlepool

St. Mary Magdalene is a Church of England parish, in the Durham Diocese, based in Hart and extending across the area of Bishop Cuthbert & Middle Warren in Hartlepool.

Hart Church serves the parish of Hart and Middle Warren and dates from 675 AD. It is the oldest Church in Hartlepool and is steeped with history; a lot of this can be found displayed within the church.

The church is a popular attraction to families, regular worshippers, and tourists alike because of its beautiful location, stunning architecture, rich heritage, and our variety of worship.

We have a variety of services suitable for old and young alike (please see ‘Services and Events’ for more details). We have an informal creche area available during services where children may play under the supervision of a parent or guardian. We are a popular place for Weddings and Baptisms, and look forward to walking with families on this step in their faith.

We would like to welcome you to our Church and hope you find a spiritual home here.
