Parish church
Burnsall is a small village in Wharfedale, North Yorkshire. The church of St Wilfrid is Grade I liisted and lies adjacent to the River Wharfe and its famous five-arched bridge. It is essentially Perpendicular, with W tower, aisled nave and chancel, and was restored in the 1850s. The aisles were added in the second quarter of the 13thc. The church has a good collection of pre-Conquest sculpture, which has recently been arranged in a permanent exhibition (see Coatsworth, Wood and Butler 2005). There are also several pieces remaining from the Romanesque period, including a re-set corbel, a font, a monolithic window-head, parts of four grave slabs, and a stoup.
Parish church
Tiny church in an idyllic bit of beautiful Wharfedale. It originally consisted of a nave and chancel in one, with a N aisle. The church was restored in 1846-47 with the addition of a chancel, vestry and new porch (Borthwick Fac. 1847/5). The S doorway, chancel arch and windows are neo-Norman in style.
Two bays of its N arcade are early 12th century (Pevsner and Leach 2009, 231). The plain font may be of 12thc. date.
Parish church
Kettlewell is a village in Upper Wharfedale, North Yorkshire. The original church was entirely rebuilt in the early 19th century: faculty papers in the Borthwick Institute, dated June 1819, state that the church is 'now rebuilding entirely new'. The W tower of c. 1820 survives from this building, the rest of which was again rebuilt between 1882-5. This was done by T H and F Healey, in a late Gothic style (see bibliography for details). Romanesque sculpture survives on the only original interior feature, the font.
