Yorkshire, East Riding (pre-1974 traditional (England and Wales))
Parish church
The Cattons, High and Low, lie a mile south of Stamford Bridge, and almost a mile apart. The church is close to the Derwent. It has an aisled nave with a tower in the westernmost bay of the S aisle, a S porch, a N transept, and a chancel by Street that stands high above the nave. There is a plan in faculty papers at the Borthwick Institute, Fac. 1908/44.
The transept survives from what was a cruciform Romanesque church. A Romanesque piscina is reset in the N wall of the vestry.
Parish church
The small church was built as a chapel of ease to Beverley Minster in 1843-4. There had been no previous church in the village: a Tickton chapel mentioned in 1414 was probably that at Hull bridge, on the west side of the river (VCHER VI, 303). Pevsner and Neave say the church has an ‘octagonal font, 1844 and the circular bowl of a medieval font, possibly Norman’ (1995, 726).
Tickton church is in the parish of Beverley Minster. It operates a Local Ecumenical Partnership (LEP) with the Methodist church in the village; this building is used for most of the worship.
Parish church
Ruston Parva is a hamlet in the East Riding of Yorkshire, 8 miles SW of Bridlington. Nothing is known of the appearance of the medieval chapel on this site. The present building is in a field above the village, and ican only be reached by traversing private land. It was constructed by a local builder around 1832 in late Georgian yellow brick on a plinth of several courses of worked medieval stone. (Pevsner and Neave, 666) Inside, there is a restored Romanesque cylindrical font.
Parish church
Hunmanby is a large village in the Scarborough district of Yorkshire, 3 miles SW of Filey. All Saints is large church at the top end of the settlement. It has chancel, nave with N aisle, porch and W tower (Pevsner and Neave 1995, 569; VCH, II 228-45). The interior has woodwork and windows of c. 1845. The nave and chancel however belonged to an aisless Norman church of the late 11th or early 12th century whose plan is still detectable. There is a buttress in the centre of the E wall of the chancel and two lengths of string course in this wall; the roof line can still be seen on the nave E wall. The S doorway has a tympanum, as does the former W doorway which is covered by the slightly later tower: the lower stages of the tower are un-buttressed. The S wall of the tower has four window openings; the W wall has, perhaps, a carved consecration cross. Inside, a simple chancel arch remains, while a plain cylindrical font, broken and no longer in use, is placed in the chancel.
Parish church
The present parish church is formed from the medieval nave of a church which had been collegiate. The ruined 14th-century chancel is of interest (Pevsner and Neave 1995, 606). Outside of it, immediately to the east of the chancel window, stands a cross which may be 12th century.
Parish church
The church of All Saints in Shiptonthorpe has a W tower, a nave with a N aisle, a S porch, and a chancel with a N chapel. It was restored by James Demaine, best seen in Borthwick Fac. 1883/86 which includes a plan and elevations (Pevsner and Neave 1995, 681).
There is a Romanesque S doorway composed of three orders and a label. A small carved panel was reset on the gable of the Victorian porch; a pre-restoration photograph shows the plaque immediately above the outer order of the doorway. Three reset stones can be seen on the S face of the tower and adjacent W wall of nave. Within the tower and acting as supports to the first floor, there are eight corbels from the first half of the 12thc (photos in Conway Library by George Zarnecki); four more corbels acting as supports for the wooden ceiling are in the nave.
Parish church
W tower built between the 14thc and the 15thc, while the remainder (nave, N aisle, chancel, vestry and S porch) is mid 19thc. The church guide notes under 'Interior' that there is a contemporary drawing of the church which shows the church before the 1853 restoration. As recorded in the church guide, there was a '12thc Norman S wall with typical small windows'. The chancel was built in 1845-6 by Chantrell, and the remainder in 1853 by Cuthbert Brodrick. The pillars of the N arcade are original, probably early 13thc. The font bowl is 12thc.
Parish church
The church is a mile and a half E of Kirkham Priory. It stands isolated almost a mile along a track N of the village, with footpaths radiating from it to various farms. Apart from the medieval tower, the building is largely reworked (Pevsner and Neave 1995, 746-7). It has W tower, nave and chancel, porch and vestry. Inside in the NW corner of the nave are two interesting pieces of sculpture: a slab with a Crucifixion scene, and a cylindrical font.
Parish church
The church has a chancel, aisled nave and west tower. It is built of boulders with ashlar dressings, 13th-century but with 12th-century masonry in the chancel (Pevsner & Neave, 727). There is herringbone masonry. Many walls in the village use cobbles in this way too.
Parish church
The medieval church was on a site in Church Street, and was said to have had some Roman stone in it (McLane 1964, 3). In an illustration of the medieval church from the SE before its demolition in 1814, the chancel has a steep roof of tile but a flatter nave roof; there is a wooden bell turret at the W end within the rectangle of the nave; corbels run along the walls of the nave and chancel; one round-headed slit window remains in the S wall of the nave but other windows are square-headed; and there was a large wooden porch (Hudleston 1962).
Sir Stephen Glynne visited Norton in 1827 and saw its successor, ‘rebuilt in a plain style without a steeple’. That building was replaced by the present church on a new site in Langton Road in 1894.
When the medieval church on Church Street was demolished about 1814 ‘the owner of Sutton Grange bought the font. It was placed in the garden… and was a treasured possession. It was presented by Mrs Wightman to the new church of St Peter in 1894,’ (McLane 1964, 6-7). This font is the only remnant of the medieval church.
