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

EHCC beat CGCC by 6 wickets during a rain affected game, to maintain their title charge for the Div 2 Langbaurgh League title.
The game was played at Ingleby Greenhow's ground as Chop Gate's pitch hasn't recovered from the winter & spring rain. You gat fabulous views of Roseberry Topping (NT) and Captain Cook's Monument.

Ingleby Greenhow must be one of the prettiest cricket grounds in England.

The Cleveland Hills from Ingleby Incline, a key feature of the former Rosedale Branch ironstone railway, operational between 1861 and 1929. Constructed by the North Eastern Railway, the line was used to transport ironstone from Rosedale to the hungry furnaces of Teesside. The incline, whose gradients were one in 11 increasing, near the top, to one in five, rose 729 feet, to Greenhow Moor, in less than a mile. It was approached, from a junction with the main line at Battersby, via a much gentler ascent over two-and-a-half miles. The climb began at Bank Foot, a short distance from Battersby, a busy junction where four lines met and a network of exchange sidings and a locomotive shed were provided.
Steel cables, passing round huge drums housed at Incline Top, hauled empty wagons up, with descending laden wagons producing the required energy. Wagons generally went three at a time. The ascent, at 20mph, took three minutes. Beyond Incline Top, the 14-mile branch ran via Bloworth Crossing to Blakey Junction, from where separate lines served mines at Rosedale East and Rosedale West. Today, it is hard to imagine the sight of steam locomotives puffing across the North York Moors at a maximum altitude of 1,370 feet. Locomotives, usually of an 0-6-0 tender design, were stabled and stored at Rosedale West. They were taken down Ingleby Incline, a hazardous exercise, only when serious maintenance was needed.
Ingleby Incline, now a bridleway, offering outstanding views over the Cleveland Plain and across to the Pennines, is used by Forestry Commission workers and shooting parties.

Two stone effigies which had been placed on end against the walls were laid below the arches of the nave arcade in the restoration of 1906. They were for a long time in the churchyard, to which probably they had been moved in 1741.
This one is the mutilated figure of a knight in a loose robe under a richly carved trefoiled canopy. Round his shoulders he carries a baldrick, and suspended from a belt on the left side is a sword. An inscription which formerly ran along the top of the canopy is now obliterated. The figure, which is 5 ft. long and rests on a modern slab, is attributed to a member of the family of Eure (fn. 76) and is probably of 14th-century date.
Priest. He has a chalice and book on the pillw on either side of his head. On his chasuble is an iscription '+ vilks de wretton capellan'
This effigy was ejected from the church during the rebuilding of 1714 and spent some years becoming weathered in the church yard. Brought back indoors at some point and set on end against a wall. Set on modern plinth in the present position during the restorations of 1906.

St Andrew's Church Memorial wall plaque to Rev. John Hawell. Born in Cumberland in 1856. Died June 21st 1904 - erected by his wife.
Tomb effigy of a knight with a sword in St. Andrew's church, Ingleby Greenhow, thought to be 14th century and depicting a member of the Eure family. The effigy is very weathered because it was moved into the churchyard during the restoration of the church in 1741 and moved back inside during the restoration of 1906. The smaller stone with the carved cross and sword is part of a sepulchral slab.
