This is a beautiful church with hundreds of years of history. it is open most days for touring. Be sure to do a google search of the history. Amazing. It has been very nicely kept. A few minutes drive from Leyburn.

This is where we put our walking boots on before our walk.

A now disused church that's somewhat out the way but now I'm the care of the churches conservation trust and being cared for..
Full of interesting features and history including an elaborate canopied family pew and multiple box pews of significant age, in addition there is an old wooden reliquary associated possibly with st Agnes and probably the only one of its kind.
Other worthwhile features include an ornate and undamaged brass of a preist, ornate stalls near the altar and the large gravestone of 2 brothers known as the bluestone where the start of marriage ceremonies were and still are held and coffins placed for funerals.. an interesting and fascinating local tradition

Wonderful old church, still with the ancient 'boxes' for the richest families as well as pews. It lists Rectors from 1181 to the present day. Well worth a visit.

Isn't this where James Herriot married Helen in the TV series?
