St Mary the Less Church, South Bailey, Durham is in South Bailey, Durham.
St Mary the Less Church, South Bailey, Durham was founded in the 12th Century by Bertram Bulmer, Lord of Brancepeth, as a garrison chapel for soldiers stationed on the nearby city walls. Its name is believed to have been chosen to distinguish it from Durham Cathedral, which is also dedicated to the Virgin Mary, and the Church of St Mary-le-Bow, which is now the Durham Heritage Centre. Both are nearby. It was substantially rebuilt in the 19th Century and is now Grade II-listed. The building ceased to be a parish church in 1917 and St John's College took responsibility for it in 1919.
