Nether Poppleton Tithe Barn

St Everilda's Church lies in Nether Poppleton, a village immediately north-west of York, in England. The church is one of only two in the country dedicated to Everilda, an Anglo-Saxon saint who established a monastic community which may have been in Poppleton, although it is usually placed in Everingham. A church was in existence by 1088, at which time its advowson was granted to the newly founded St Mary's Abbey, York.The church was rebuilt in the twelfth-century, and much of the material from that period survives. It is built of limestone, some finely cut and other sections of rubble. In 1778, galleries were added on the north and west side of the nave, and part of the north wall was rebuilt in brick. Further alterations took place in the 19th-century, and the west door probably dates from this period.Some of the windows in the chancel contain 14th-century stained glass, while those in the nave are square-headed and of later date. In the chancel, there are three 17th-century memorials to members of the Hutton family. In the east wall of the vestry is a carving of a cross, believed to date from the 13th-century. In 1939, a new altar, carved by Robert Thompson, was installed. An extension was added in 2015, providing a kitchen and storage space. The building has been grade II* listed since 1966.

St Giles' Church is the parish church of Skelton, a village in the rural northern part of the City of York. The church lies at the northern end of the village green. Records show that it was completed in or just before 1247, and the entire church is in the style of that period. The Victoria County History of the North Riding of Yorkshire states that "as an example of early 13th century work it is unequalled by any other parish church in the county".Local tradition maintains that the church was built with the stones that remained after the building of the south transept of York Minster, in 1227. Historic England states that the church was probably constructed by the same masons as that transept. The church is thus sometimes called "Little St Peter's". The following extract from Archbishop Grey's roll shows that its building took place previous to the year 1247: "Confirmation of a donation to the chapel of Skelton. To all, etc. The donation which our beloved son in Christ, Master E. Hagitur, treasurer of York, made to John de l'Edes, clerk of the chapel of Skelton, considering it to be agreeable and satisfactory to us, we confirm the same by our Pontifical authority, desiring the said treasurer, and his successors, to pay annually the sum of 20d. to this parson. In witness whereof, &c., &c. Dated at Thorp, on the 6th day of the Ides of December, A.D. 1247." The church formerly had a small steeple at its west end, which housed two bells, but this was removed in the 18th century. The church was restored between 1810 and 1818 by Henry Graham, who heavily restored the porch as an exact replica of the original design. The church was and again restored in 1863 by Ewan Christian. Despite two restoration schemes, the church has stood "virtually unaltered" since it was built, and is claimed to be "now one of only two complete Early English churches in the country." It is mentioned by Nikolaus Pevsner in his 1966 The Buildings of England: Yorkshire North Riding, by John Betjeman in his 1958 English Parish Churches and by Simon Jenkins in his 1999 England's Thousand Best Churches. Long dedicated to All Saints, it is now dedicated to Saint Giles. In 1986, it was grade I listed.The church is small, measuring 44 feet (13 m) by 32.5 feet (9.9 m). The nave is two bays long, and the chancel a single bay, separated by a chancel arch. There are north and south aisles running the full length of the church. The east window is of three lancets, with a deeply carved surround, while the main west window is a single large lancet. In both aisles are an aumbry and piscina and original windows; the west window of the north aisle has some ancient stained glass. The whole building is covered by a single, pitched, roof. The font is of similar date to the church. There is a worn tablet in the south aisle commemorating Robert and Anne Lovell, who both died in 1421. Other memorials are to Tomlinson Bunting, who died in 1768, and to Joseph and Sarah Hotham, erected in 1791. The register starts in 1538.

Skelton Manor is a historic house in the village of Skelton, in the rural northern part of the City of York, in England. The house lies north of St Giles' Church. It was built in the mid-16th century for Edward Besley and Bridget Nelson. Historic England describes it as probably originally being a hall, with two wings at the rear. However, it has been so altered, in the mid 18th century and again in the late 19th century, that this is not certain. It was originally timber framed, although over time, much of the timber has been replaced by brick. The building is two storeys high, and is now entered through a hallway; two wings now project slightly forward of the main body of the house. Most of its windows have mullions and transoms and date from the late 19th century, as does the porch and front door. The Victoria County History states that the house's "chief interest lies in the internal fittings". These include some original wooden posts. The entrance hall has 17th century oak panelling, as do the dining and sitting rooms. The dining room fireplace is probably 16th century, albeit much altered by the Victorians, and the room is also noted for carved frieze. The staircase is Elizabethan, perhaps made by Thomas Ventris. Upstairs, the chamber over the hall has 17th century panelling and its main beam has a frieze of pomegranates, which is probably mid-16th century, while the door from it to the landing is 16th century, with 15th century bosses attached. The upstairs sitting room has a late-16th century frieze depicting mermaids and mermen, while the west bedroom has 17th century panelling, and the east bedroom is also panelled.In 1923, the house was described as "much overgrown with creepers". In 1953, the house was grade II* listed.

Its main body consists of a nave and chancel There is a porch on the south side, sheltering the main entrance, a Norman doorway reused from the old church.

The font is 13th century and has an octagonal stem and a plain stone bowl.

Skelton Hall is a Grade II listed building located in North Yorkshire, England.
