All Saints Church is in the village of

Anglican parish church in the deanery of Southern Ryedale, the archdeaconry of York, and the diocese of York. Its benefice is united with those of five other local churches to form the Benefice of Buckrose Carrs.[1] The church is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II* listed building.[2]

History

The church dates from the 12th century,

Paley and Austin.[4] This included rebuilding the north aisle on its old foundations, opening up the blocked medieval arcade, rebuilding the chancel, and adding a vestry and a porch. The work cost over £2,000 (equivalent to £220,000 as of 2021).[5][6]

Architecture

Exterior

The body of the church is constructed in

Decorated tracery, and a buttress. To the east of the buttress are a small window with a pointed head, and two two-light windows. The east end contains a three-light window with Decorated tracery, and a gable surmounted by a gable with a cross finial.[2]

Interior

Incorporated in the fabric of the north wall of the nave are carvings, some dating from the 11th century, including a tomb slab. The north wall of the chancel contains 19th-century

Verney family of Claydon House, Buckinghamshire. It was later discovered in a poor state of repair in York Minster.[4] The organ was restored in 1977 by Howard Balshaw.[4]
