Old St Andrew's Church is a ruined building in Bishopthorpe, a village south of York in England. The first church on the site was built in the early 13th century. It was cruciform, and had a central tower. By 1768, it was in very poor condition, and was demolished on the orders of Robert Hay Drummond, with only its foundations retained. He commissioned Thomas Atkinson to design a new church, which was largely built of brick, and retained the cruciform plan. Its windows were relocated from the chapel at Cawood Castle, and their glass was designed by William Wailes. However, located next to the River Ouse, it regularly flooded.In 1842, Edward Venables-Vernon-Harcourt paid £2,000 to replace the roof and floor, add a south vestry, and porches to each transept. He also built a stone wall on the riverbank, to reduce the risk of floods. Gas lighting was added in 1868, a new organ was installed in 1870, and the pews were replaced in 1872. In 1892, the church suffered a further major flood, and it was decided to build a new St Andrew's Church, away from the river. The new church was completed in 1899, and the old church was largely demolished, with just the west front retained. In 1985, the ruin was Grade II listed.The ruin is built of brick, covered in Magnesian Limestone. It is in the Gothick style, including a Tudor-style central doorway, with a three-light pointed window above. Other than the west front, the foundations of the nave, transepts and chancel survive, as does the head of one window.

St Andrew's Church is the parish church of Bishopthorpe, a village in the City of York in England. Bishopthorpe had a church from the 13th century, with Old St Andrew's Church dating from 1768. However, the building regularly flooded, and following a major inundation in 1892, it was decided to construct a new building, on a site further from the river. It was designed by C. Hodgson Fowler, and work started in February 1898. In December, the Archbishop of York ascended scaffolding to affix a cross to the gable end of the roof. The church was consecrated on 25 July 1899. The construction cost £5,893, more than budgeted, which meant that more fundraising was required before a tower could be added. Ultimately, the archbishop personally paid for a tower, which was constructed in 1903. The church is built of sandstone, with a tile roof. It is in the Gothic Revival style. It consists of a nave with aisles, a south porch, and a chancel with a south aisle and north vestry. There is a tower at the west end, with three stages, diagonal buttresses, and battlements. Most of the windows have Perpendicular tracery. It has been Grade II listed since 1985.

St Oswald's Hall is a grade II* listed former church in Fulford, in south-eastern York, in England. The church lies west of the main part of Fulford, near the River Ouse. It is possible that this was the original site of the village, which is now centred on the main road.The church was built in the 12th century, a small building of stone from Tadcaster. The nave has been tentatively dated to about 1150, and the chancel to around 1180. The south door and windows on the north side of the chancel are original, while the east window dates from the 14th century, and the southern windows are 17th-century. The church originally had a steeple, but already in 1577 it was recorded as being "in decay", and it was later demolished. In 1795, a brick tower was added, with a pyramidal roof, and a new west window was added. A vestry was also added, along with a west gallery.The church was further altered in 1809, when new pews and a new pulpit were added, and the ceiling plaster is from this date. The roof tiles are acorn shaped, made by Wade and Cherry around 1870. In 1890, a lych gate was constructed at the entrance to the churchyard. Inside the church, the floor in the chancel is tiled, with the tiles thought to be 13th-century, having originally been laid at Jervaulx Abbey, but other fittings have been removed.A new St Oswald's Church was constructed in the village in 1866, and the old church was converted into a house in 1980.

St Chad's Church, sometimes known as St Chad on the Knavesmire, is a parish church in the South Bank area of York, in England. In the early 20th century, the South Bank area fell within the parish of St Clement's Church, but it had a small mission church on South Bank Avenue. A church building on Campleshon Road was planned as a memorial to G. Argles, rector of St Clement's. The building was designed by Walter Brierley. Construction started in 1925, but was unfinished when Brierley died the following year. A vestry was added to the building in 1928, when the church was given its own parish. The church was finally completed by Francis Johnson in 1966, with only about half the original plan having been constructed. The building was Grade II listed in 2004. The building is constructed of concrete, with brick facades, and a concrete roof vault. The main part of the church consists of a single space, serving as both nave and chancel, with side aisles, a narthex at the west end, with stairs leading to an organ gallery, and a chapel at the east end. There is a tower at the north-west; this incorporates a porch. The tower has a flat roof and has a brick niche containing a statue of Saint Chad. Externally, the building is divided into bays by full-height buttresses, and the walls are topped with a parapet of moulded brick. There is a priest's doorway at the south-east corner, with its own small tower. The windows are lancets, arranged at the west end in multiple tiers.Inside, the nave and chancel are divided by a screen, with piers which support a piscina and aumbry. The pulpit is hexagonal and was constructed in 1940.

Bishopthorpe Garth is a grade II listed house on the edge of Bishopthorpe, a village south of York, in England. The house was designed by 1908 by Walter Brierley, for the colliery owner Arthur Toward Wilson. Patrick Nuttgens described it as a precursor of Brierley's work at Goddards House and Garden. Its gardens were designed by Gertrude Jekyll. Brierley also designed a gatehouse on Sim Balk Lane, consisting of two cottages with a carriage arch between them. Various additions to the house were made over the years, and both the house and gatehouse were grade II listed in 1985. In the early 2000s, it was owned by Kevin Linfoot, a property developer. In 2022, it was placed on the market for £4.75 million, although this was later reduced to £3.5 million, including the gatehouse. The arts and crafts house is built of hand-made bricks, some with mouldings, and a pantile roof. It has two wings with two storeys, the left-hand one of two bays, and the right-hand one of a single bay. The central section is also of two bays, with a single main storey and an attic. The entrance is through a panelled oak door, and the windows throughout are leaded casements. The interior is partly in the Jacobethan style, with many original features, including an open-well oak staircase.The gatehouse is similarly built of hand-made brick, with some render, and a pantile roof. It is a single storey, with an attic, and the walls bow towards the carriage entrance.
