Stonegrave Minster, Medieval parish church in Stonegrave, England
The stone church structure features a central tower, Norman arches in the north wall, and an extended chancel that includes a traditional apse design.
The church was first mentioned in 757 AD through correspondence from Pope Paul I to King Eadberht regarding an abbot appointment at this location.
The north aisle contains burial sites of the Thornton family, including a rare civilian effigy with crossed legs from the period between 1300 and 1700.
The church maintains regular services as part of a four-parish benefice that includes Oswaldkirk, Gilling, and Ampleforth villages in North Yorkshire.
The 1637 light rood screen remains in place, surviving both the Reformation changes and the extensive Victorian restoration of 1863.
