Kirby Knowle

St Wilfrid's Church is the parish church of Kirby Knowle, a village in North Yorkshire, in England. A church was built on the site in the 12th century, and was altered in the 13th century. Its chancel was rebuilt in 1815, but in 1848 it was still described as a "small structure". The building was demolished, and a new church was built between 1873 and 1874, to an Early English design by G. Fowler Jones. The church was grade II listed in 1966. The church is built of stone with a Welsh slate roof. It consists of a nave, a chancel with a north vestry and a southwest tower with a gabled south porch. The tower has two stages, a chamfered plinth, buttresses, slit vents, paired bell openings with impost bands, and a stepped embattled parapet on a dentilled base. The windows in the church are lancets, and the east window has three lancets under quatrefoils. Inside, there are 17th- and 18th-century brass memorials, a broken Mediaeval graveslab and some other Mediaeval stones. The font probably dates from the 17th century.

Mount St John is a historic building and estate in Felixkirk, a village in North Yorkshire, in England. William Percy founded the Mount St. John Preceptory of the Knights Hospitallers in the area in 1148. It was abandoned following the Dissolution of the Monasteries, and while the current Mount St John's name recalls it, it is on a different site. The estate was owned by the Archbishop of York until 1870, and in 1720 it was let to William Elsley, who demolished an older house and built the current property. In the 19th century, the house was purchased by John Walker, who greatly extended it. His family owned the house until 1964. The house was grade II* listed in 1978. In the early 21st century, it was owned by Chris Blundell, with gardens designed by Tom Stuart-Smith, and kitchen gardens which supply Blundell's hotel group, Provenance Inns. The house is built of sandstone, and part of the extension is in brick. It has a hipped Welsh slate roof. The earlier part has two storeys and the extension is partly in three storeys. The south front has a plinth, giant angle pilasters, a floor band, an eaves band, a moulded cornice, a panelled parapet with urns on the corners, and a pediment over the central bay. There are five bays, the middle bay projecting. In the centre is the former entrance, with a shouldered architrave and a cornice. The windows are sashes with keystones, the window above the entrance with a shouldered architrave and a moulded sill and apron. The west front has been extended to twelve bays, and on the east front is a Venetian window. Inside, high-quality decoration includes two screens of columns in the entrance hall, and the main staircase with finely carved balusters.

St Felix's Church is the parish church of Felixkirk, a village in North Yorkshire, in England. There was a church in Felixkirk before the Norman Conquest. The church was enlarged in the 12th century, with aisles added, and much of the material survives from this period. Nikolaus Pevsner discusses the idea that the nave may originally have been round, although remains do not suggest this, and the form would be very unusual for the region. The tower was added in the 15th century, and perhaps in the 16th century a square sanctuary was added. Between 1859 and 1860, W. H. Dykes heavily restored the church, attempting to create an idealised Romanesque appearance. He located the foundations of the original rounded chancel, demolishing the sanctuary and rebuilding on the foundations. The church was grade II* listed in 1966. The church is built in sandstone, with a lead roof on the chancel, and a stone slate roof elsewhere. The church consists of a nave, north and south aisles, a south porch, a chancel with an apse, and a west tower. The tower has two stages, diagonal buttresses, a three-light west window, a south clock face, two-light bell openings, and an embattled parapet. The west window in the south aisle is Norman, and in the chancel is a re-set Norman doorway. Inside the church is the tomb of William de Cantilupe, who died in 1309, and there is an effigy of Eva of Boltby, of similar date.

A church in Cowesby was first mentioned in 1227, and by the early 19th century, it was considered the second oldest in the district, after St Mary's Church, Leake.

The church is built of stone, with a stone slate roof. It consists of a three-bay nave, a south porch, a single-bay chancel, and a central tower.
