Church Of St Hilda

The Church of St Hilda is a Grade II listed building, rebuilt in 1773 on a site with medieval origins that date back to Saxon times. The tower was added in 1817, and significant alterations took place in 1895. The church is constructed from coursed squared stone with quoins and features a Welsh slate roof. The west entrance is located in a low, two-stage battlemented tower. The nave and chancel each consist of three bays, with square-headed windows that exhibit perpendicular tracery. A large buttress in the chancel arch position is a remnant of a former north porch. A date plaque on the east gable indicates that this part of the church was built in 1773, and there is a Venetian window on the east side.

Inside, remnants of the old church include the upper part of a Norman pillar piscina and some pieces of Saxon carving, as well as a column or cross base. The interior also features an oak screen with perpendicular detail, a west gallery, and an organ that was sourced from Selby Abbey.
