St Mary
Goathland, GB
There has been a place of worship in Goathland, on the North Yorkshire Moors, for at least eight centuries. The present building, which was completed in 1896, was designed by Mr Walter H Brierly of York who said of his creation: ‘The qualities of simplicity, breadth and sturdiness were felt to be especially required for such a bleak moorland situation, and were aimed at in the design'.
