Church of St Martin Le Grand, Medieval church in Coney Street, York, England

The Church of St Martin Le Grand features a prominent tower constructed in the 15th century and contains detailed stained glass windows throughout its structure.

The church endured significant damage during World War II bombing in 1942, leading to extensive reconstruction efforts between 1961 and 1968 under architect George Pace.

The medieval stained glass window depicting scenes from the life of St Martin represents the church's dedication to Martin of Tours, known for compassion.

The building functions as an Anglican church within the Diocese of York, offering regular services and maintaining a pipe organ built by J.W. Walker in 1968.

The church clock includes a carved figure called the Little Admiral from 1778, which remains a distinguishing feature of the building's exterior.
