Church Of Saint Botolph

The Church of Saint Botolph is a Grade II listed building located on Main Street in Allerthorpe. It was constructed in 1876 by architects J B and W Atkinson in the Gothic revival style. The church is built of rubble with freestone dressings and features a graduated slate roof.

The structure includes a west bell turret, a three-bay nave, and a two-bay chancel. The nave is supported by buttresses with offsets and has a pointed door with continuous mouldings on the left side. There are two square-headed, two-light windows with tracery in the Perpendicular style. The gables are raised and coped, topped with a cross finial. The octagonal bell turret is corbelled out over a mid-wall buttress on the west elevation and has square-headed cusped belfry openings on each cardinal face, a brattished cornice, and a short spire with lucarnes, finished with a poppy-head finial.

The chancel features a plinth and buttresses with offsets. On the left side, there is a two-light pointed window with curvilinear tracery under a hood-mould, and to the right, a lancet window also under a hood-mould. The east window is a three-light pointed window with curvilinear tracery under a hood-mould. Like the nave, the chancel has raised coped gables and a cross finial.
