Came to Grosmont to visit the castle but found so much more when deciding to visit this church. It’s fairly impressive from the outside as most churches are with a towering spire, but opening the door brought us to a historical marvel. Dating back to the 13th Century, this building offers a step back in time. Built around the same time as the castle to service the local garrison and their families attached to the castle. It’s a church of two halves. A shell that is in the middle of a renovation and a working church. In the sparce “great hall” of the church is the original medieval roof trusses and Romanesque pillars that are magnificent to view. They have a guidebook to purchase within that gives a good history of the church which has classed almost as a “mini cathedral”. Don’t miss the magnificent stone effigy of an unknown medieval knight. This is a must see place. No dedicated parking, street access only. Incredible views.

An impressive 13th century church, a juxtaposition between the medieval nave and restored chancel and transepts. Worth a visit for a wider view of the village's history if you're heading to the castle.
