BEADNELL, a chapelry in the parish, and northern division of the ward, of BAMBROUGH, county of NORTHUMBERLAND, 10 miles (E. S. E.) from Belford, containing 213 inhabitants. The living is a perpetual curacy, in the archdeaconry of Northumberland, and diocese of Durham, endowed with £400 private benefaction, £800 royal bounty, and £200 parliamentary grant, and in the patronage of the Perpetual Curate of Bambrough. The chapel is a small handsome structure with a spire.
