Church of St Martin Cum Gregory, Medieval former church in Micklegate, York, England
Church of St Martin Cum Gregory is a medieval building on Micklegate featuring Gothic architectural details and a west tower that was refaced in brick during the 1600s. The structure has tall windows, a solid stone exterior, and now operates as a stained glass center and working studio.
The church was founded around 1050 and gained its present name after merging with St Gregory's Church in 1585. This union of two parishes created a shared place of worship that served the community for centuries.
The building now houses a stained glass studio where craftspeople work with medieval and contemporary glass techniques. Visitors can observe how artisans restore old windows and create new pieces using traditional methods.
The building stands at the corner of Micklegate and Gregory Lane in York's city center. Visits are available by prior arrangement, so plan ahead to ensure you can access the interior.
A clock was installed in the tower in 1680 and has been marking time for York residents ever since. This working timepiece remains one of the oldest continuously operating clocks in the city.
