Church Gresley, St George & St Mary
St George & St Mary’s has a long history to this ancient grade 2* listed building, being built upon a site of a priory dating back to 1135. It was at that time used by monks for prayerful contemplation, and some evidence is still visible of that time.
It is a very beautiful church that has retained its traditional charm with many beautiful stained glass windows, the most recent being added to commemorate the links the community has with its mining history. The church equally has links with Sir Nigel Gresley, the UK’s most famous locomotive engineer of the Flying Scotsman fame and the Gresley family.
In December 2017 Gresley Church was forced to close St George’s and St Mary’s building due to falling masonry.

Church in ruinious state when restored in 1786 and again restored and present chancel built in 1872. Coursed stone with slate roof. Much of internal stonework of monastic nave may survive but part of C14 north arcade visibly remains and blocked door at west end of south wall probably led to cloisters.

Wall monument in south aisle to John Alleyne (died 1712) (the Alleynes owned Priory site after 1556). Three Royal coats of arms (2 of reign of George III). Misericord seats in chancel and at rear of nave, thought to have been carved by Artus Quellin, a Flemish craftsman in mid C17.

Church of St George and St Mary, Church Street, Church Gresley - South Derbyshire
Largely C14 church, incorporating part of a C12 monastic church. The tower is C15 and the remainder is C18 and C19. The church lies to the north of a former colliery site and there is a history of structural movement, including to the stair turret. The National Lottery Heritage Fund Grants for Places of Worship scheme grant aided localised tree management, drainage and turret structural repairs in 2015. The nave and chancel slate roofs are in poor condition. There is also a loss of fabric at parapet level. A National Lottery Heritage Fund grant was awarded in early 2020 for development work.

St George and St Mary's Church, Church Gresley
St George and St Mary’s Church, Church Gresley is a Grade II* listed parish church in the Church of England in Church Gresley, Derbyshire.
History
The church dates from 1100 and incorporates the remains of the nave of a small Augustinian Priory, Gresley Priory.
The church was ruinous and restored in 1786. In 1872 a new chancel was added by Arthur Blomfield and all the seats were turned to face eastwards. In May 1932 the church was closed for 2 years because of the dangerous state of the ceiling. It re-opened in July 1934 after restoration. The church closed once again in 2018 due to falling masonry and structural issues with the roof.
Organ
The pipe organ was installed by Forster and Andrews in 1860. It was later modified by S Taylor in 1888, H Cantrill in 1960 and Henry Groves & Son in 2000. A specification of the organ can be found on the National Pipe Organ Register.

George Duke @ the St. Lucia Jazz Festival. May 2009... I spoke briefly with George Duke prior to his ‘electric’ performance at St. Lucia’s Jazz Festival in 2007. He spoke passionately... www.michaelvalentinestudio.com/tributes/reflections_past/...
It was raining on the first day of the trip (typical Rochester weather), so stopped over at George Eastman.
St George Tombland, near the entrance to Norwich Cathedral Close, is one of the city's grandest medieval churches and happily also still in use as a parish church.
The building dates mainly to the 15th century and consists of a tall west tower, nave flanked by aisles and chancel. The furnishings are mainly 19th century and later, though the large 18th century reredos has been retained behind the high altar.
There are some small pieces of medieval glass surviving though the bulk of the windows are Victorian. Some notable exceptions are the beautiful 1930s Magnificat by Morris & Co in the south aisle and two eccentric and strikingly coloured 'kaleidoscopic' geometric windows on the north side (1867).
I had never previously found this church open on my visits to the city but believe it is open to visitors more regurlarly nowadays.
