About Us

St Mary's, a12th century church, served as a Minster to this area until the dissolution of the monasteries.  It has a 120 foot spire which allows it to dominate the plain.  It's importance lies in the woodwork and carvings in the church and we have the oldest recorded misericord in the country. Although known as St. Mary's, It's official name is 'The Collegiate Church of St. Mary the Virgin'.

Our daughter church is St Andrew Cliffe.  This is a modern and versatile building.   

We are open to visitors, although not daily. If closed the warden will open up for you at short notice.
