St Michael and All Angels' Church is the parish church of Middleton Tyas, a village in North Yorkshire, in England. The oldest surviving part of the church is the north arcade of the nave, which was built about 1140, although it is believed that this was an addition to an earlier building, which was both widened and lengthened. In the 13th century the west tower was constructed, and the chancel and north wall of the nave were rebuilt. The south arcade of the nave was added in the 14th century. Between 1867 and 1869, the church was restored by George Gilbert Scott, the work including the reconstruction of the chancel, heightening of the chancel arch, addition of a north vestry, a south porch and a spire, and the rebuilding of many of the windows. The church was grade I listed in 1969. The church is built of stone with an artificial stone slate roof, and consists of a nave, north and south aisles, a south porch, a chancel with a north vestry, and a west tower. The tower has four stages, a southeast stair turret, a two-light west window, light vents, two-light bell openings, and a parapet on corbels. At the east end of the south aisle is a half-lunette window with two mullions. Between the north door and a buttress is a grave cover propped up vertically.

St Mary's Church was demolished, and St Cuthbert's was later dedicated to both Cuthbert and Mary. The church was Grade II listed in 1968. The church is built of stone, with a slate roof. It has a four-bay combined nave and chancel, a north vestry, a south chapel, and a southwest tower over a porch.

The Victoria County History is critical of the design, describing the church as "architecturally... of no interest". Inside the church, the original pews survive, along with an original organ case on the north side of the chancel. There is an early 20th century reredos. Much of the stained glass dates from the 1840s, including the west window, by William Wailes. There is a Romanesque font, brought from St Mary's, and several monuments from the 17th century on.
