St Mary's Church, South Cowton, Gothic church in South Cowton, England

The sandstone church features a three-bay nave, a two-storey south porch, a chancel with northeast vestry, and a west tower in Perpendicular style.

Sir Richard Conyers commissioned the construction of St Mary's Church between 1450 and 1470, during the period of the Wars of the Roses.

The interior contains fifteenth-century octagonal font, choirstalls, and alabaster effigies representing Richard Conyers and his wives in the chancel.

The church, maintained by the Churches Conservation Trust since 1988, stands at coordinates 54.4186, -1.5497, eight miles from Northallerton railway station.

The village surrounding the church was completely removed by Sir Richard Conyers to create agricultural fields, leaving the building isolated in the landscape.
