St James' Church, Warter, Grade II listed church in Warter, England
St James' Church displays Gothic architecture with a west tower, broach spire, five-bay nave, south porch, and polygonal apse constructed of ashlared stone.
Built in 1862-1863 for Lord Muncaster, this church stands on the site of a medieval priory established by Geoffrey Fitz Pain in 1132.
The interior houses stained glass windows by Robert Anning Bell depicting scenes from Wilson family life, connecting local heritage with artistic expression.
The church, maintained by Yorkshire Wolds Heritage Centre since 1990, underwent restoration in 2006 with support from Heritage Lottery Fund and LEADER+.
The churchyard features bronze sculptures by Gilbert Bayes, relocated from Warter Priory's Italian Garden, marking the Wilson family's private burial ground.
