St Michael and St Lawrence's Church, Fewston

A church was first built in Fewston in the 12th century, and the mediaeval tower survives.

The remainder of the church was rebuilt in 1697, from which time the font also dates.

[1][2] The church is built of gritstone with a stone slate roof, and consists of a five-bay nave, a north aisle, a south porch, a three-bay chancel and a west tower.

The tower has three stages, diagonal buttresses, round-arched bell openings with an impost band, a coved cornice, and an embattled parapet with corner pinnacles.

The porch has a shallow segmental arch, pilasters, a projecting band, and a dated keystone, above which is a pulvinated frieze, a cornice, a coped gable with shaped kneelers, and a cross at the apex.
