Visitors will receive a warm welcome to this Grade II listed church, dating to the 11th-15th century. There will be an opportunity to visit the bell-ringing chamber, ring out the bells and see the 200-year-old clock. Registers held in the church and liturgical vestments will be on display. There are various artefacts stretching back many years around the building.

There is also a new display about John Metcalf (aka ‘Blind Jack of Knaresborough’) who is buried here. A nearby road (the A658 southern bypass between A61 Buttersyke Bar roundabout and the A661 Kestrel roundabout) has been named the ‘John Metcalf Way’ in recognition of his pioneering work. The display includes a copy of the Burial Register for the church. Should you then go and visit his grave, marked with an appropriate ‘white stick’, you may just be able to make out the rather long inscription, with what might be the wrong date for his death - we may never know the truth?!
Come and find out who he was and visit his grave. Children's activities and refreshments will also be available.
