St. Mary's Roman Catholic Church

Durham Street. The church was built in Transitional Norman or ‘First Point Period’ in 1851 at a time when the population of Hartlepool was increasing with an influx of dock and railway workers. The church was designed by Joseph Aloysius Hansom who also designed the Hansom Cab and was paid for by weekly collections from the 1,500 parishioners in the area who also carried the stone from a nearby quarry.
