Royal Air Force Church Fenton or RAF Church Fenton (ICAO: EGCM) is a former Royal Air Force (RAF) station located 4.3 miles (6.9 km) south-east of Tadcaster, North Yorkshire, England and 6.3 miles (10.1 km) north-west of Selby, North Yorkshire, near the village of Church Fenton. The station was opened in 1937 and during the Second World War was home to air defence aircraft, a role retained by the Station until the 1960s when it became a training station. The last Station Commander of a self-determining RAF Church Fenton was Sqn Ldr David Morris, who had trained on Chipmunk aircraft at RAF Church Fenton in 1973. Sqn Ldr Morris returned to RAF Church Fenton in 1991 as the Officer Commanding Station Services Squadron, to prepare the as then autonomous station for yet another closure, and transfer into the control of RAF Linton on Ouse as a satellite airfield and Enhanced Relief Landing Ground. The gates of the fully independent RAF Church Fenton were closed at 12:00 on 31 December 1992, However, with its assets such as the Officers' Mess subsequently razed to the ground to save on maintenance, and the married quarters and other buildings sold off piecemeal by the MoD, RAF Church Fenton's runways and aviation infrastructure were alienated from the remainder of the administrative site and remained operational until 2013. The satellite airfield Enhanced Relief Landing Ground was sold in 2013 and is now a civilian airfield known as Leeds East Airport.

All Saints' Church is the parish church of Ryther cum Ossendyke, a village north-west of Selby in Yorkshire, in England. The church was originally built around the time of the Norman Conquest, and it was recorded in the Domesday Book. It has sometimes been described as Saxon, although little material survives from this date - principally, some carved stones set into the wall, and two reset window heads, and possibly the round chancel arch. The nave was rebuilt in the 13th century, and the chancel in the 14th century, when a south aisle was also added to the church. In 1773, the church was restored and partly rebuilt, and the chancel was again rebuilt in 1843. In 1898, C. Hodgson Fowler undertook a major restoration, in which, the brick tower was taken down and replaced by a bell turret, the roof was replaced, and a new east window was added, along with a south porch. The church is built of a mixture of limestone and gritstone, with a tiled roof. It has a simple plan with a three-bay nave and two-bay chancel. Inside, there is an early font, 15th century piscina and a hagioscope. There are five stone altars, possibly dating from the 11th century, with worn carvings representing the wounds of Christ.The parish has been reduced in size on several occasions; St Mary's Chapel, Lead was formerly a chapel-of-ease. In 1967, the church was Grade I listed.
