History

Duddo Five Stones is a stone circle to the north of the village.^[2] It is a Scheduled Monument.^[3]

Duddo Tower, south of the village, was built late in the 16th century.^[4] It is now a ruin and a Scheduled Monument.^[5] It replaced an earlier tower built in 1496.^[2]

Churches and school

The Church of England parish church of All Saints is a Gothic Revival building.^[6] It is in a Decorated Gothic style and was completed in 1879.^[6]

All Saints' church replaced the earlier parish church of St James the Great, which was designed by Ignatius Bonomi in a neo-Norman style and built in 1832.^[2][7] It was later converted into part of the parish school,^[2][7] presumably when All Saints' church was built. The school has since closed and the building is now a private house.^{[citation needed]}
