Church of St Elgin

The Church of St Elgin is a Grade II* listed building located in North Frodingham. The church features a 15th-century west tower, with a belfry added in 1892 by Temple Moore. The nave and chancel were completed in 1878 by H Roumieau Gough. The tower is constructed of ashlar, while the rest of the church is built with random cobbles and freestone dressings. The roofs are pantiled, and there is a timber eaves cornice.

The west tower has three stages, a chamfered plinth, diagonal buttresses, and hollow-chamfered string-courses. It includes three-light belfry openings with tracery in the Perpendicular style, pointed heads, and hood-moulds. Below the crenellated parapet, there is blank arcading. The west window features three lights with Perpendicular tracery under a pointed opening and a stopped hood-mould, with a 19th-century niche and image above.

The nave has a lancet window to the west and pointed windows with Geometrical tracery elsewhere. The south door is pointed with a stopped hood-mould. A 15th-century niche has a ribbed vault, a crocketed gablet, and muntins supported on earlier corbels with face masks, containing a 19th-century image. The nave has a modillion eaves cornice and a raised coped gable with a cross finial.

The chancel has a chamfered plinth and diagonal buttresses, with lancet windows throughout. It features a round-headed priest's door with moulded imposts, a chamfered head and jambs, and a hood-mould. The chancel also has a modillion eaves cornice and a three-light pointed east window with Geometrical tracery and a hood-mould. Above this, there are two ashlar bands, with the upper band incorporating a blank, cusped vesica. The gable is raised and coped, topped with a Celtic cross finial.

Inside, the church has octagonal piers in the north arcade with moulded octagonal abaci that support pointed double-chamfered arches. There is a 10th-century cross fragment and an undated carving of Atlas at the west end of the north aisle.
