The living is annexed to Catterick. The church was built in 1847. There are a Wesleyan chapel and a slightly endowed school."

The church was built in 1846 as a chapel of ease to St Michael and All Angels in neighbouring Hudswell.[3][4] The building was grade II listed in 1969.[5] Tunstall has one public house, The Bay Horse, which is tied to the Yorkshire-based brewer Samuel Smith.[6]
