St Mary's Church, Whitkirk, Grade I listed church in Whitkirk, England.

The church features a west tower with diagonal buttresses, carved obelisk pinnacles, and a lead-clad spire above a heavy nave with aisle parapets.

Dating from 1185, the current structure was built in the 15th century and underwent restoration between 1855 and 1856, with a chancel rebuilt by G.F. Bodley in 1901.

The church maintains an annual Sung Eucharist in Temple Newsam House Long Gallery to commemorate the 1922 transfer of the estate to Leeds Corporation.

St Mary's Church streams its services live every Sunday at 10:00 AM, providing access to worship for those unable to attend in person.

The church contains a 12th-century font crafted from a single piece of magnesium limestone sourced from the same quarry as York Minster stone.
