Description
The Church of St Peter and St Paul is a Grade II listed building located on High Street in Stokesley. The church features a chancel from the mid-14th century and a west tower, while the main body of the church was constructed between 1767 and 1777. It is built from large coursed squared sandstone and includes a plinth, cill band, alternating quoins, a moulded cornice, and a parapet, topped with a Welsh slate roof. The nave has four windows.
The truncated chancel is supported by diagonal buttresses and has a low-pitched roof, along with an added vestry. The three-stage tower also features diagonal buttresses and a battlemented parapet, with a porch located at the angle between the tower and the nave. There is an OSBM to the left of the west door.
Inside, the church has a plain preaching box design with a coved and panelled ceiling. The chancel contains a priest's door, a tomb recess, and a monument to Sir Henry Marwood Bart. from 1764, which features a pedimented slab with a cherub below. There is one notable 19th-century window, a modern screen leading to the Lady Chapel, and a pulpit designed by Thompson.
