Ingleby Greenhow - St Andrew's Church
The Church of St. Andrew in the village of Ingleby Greenhow is a Norman church that was restored in 1741 and again in 1906 but it still contains a great many original features.
The oldest parts of the church date back to the 12th century, but much of the structure was rebuilt in 1741. The chancel arch, nave arcade and part of the west tower are 12th century and the north and south walls of the chancel date back to the 13th century. The building contains many Norman and later medieval features, some still in their original position and others that were reused
The church yard is a triangle, with one side formed by the beck and the other two by Marsh Lane and Church Lane. This makes it very difficult to get a good position to capture the whole church
The village is on the border of the North York Moors and 3 miles south of Great Ayton. The village name may derive from the Saxon for Englishman's green hill
