Sledmere is a village about seven miles NW of Driffield. The church consists of a sandstone ashlar building of a chancel with a N vestry, an aisled nave, a W tower and a S porch. The church interior has delicate screens of wood and metal, and pink stone. The present nave and chance were built in 1893-8 and replace an 18thc church, which itself had replaced the medieval structure, enlarged in the 14thc. A range of plans and early views are displayed in the church, but no structure of our period has survived. As Pevsner and Neave (1995), 692, say, in the late 19thc ‘the church was rebuilt on the lines of the medieval building which were discovered on the demolition of the Georgian nave and chancel’. Remains of Romanesque sculpture consist of a series of corbels in the chamber above organ and a fragment reset into the tower arch.
