Church of Saint Chad, Sproxton
Heritage Open Day: This little church, allegedly the smallest in Yorkshire, has nine pews. Built in the 1640s in a field a mile away, in 1879 was moved and rebuilt stone by stone by George Gilbert Scott Jnr and Temple Moore, keeping its original unusual square shape. This Grade II listed building was once a barn on a nearby farm before being moved here, stone by stone in 1879.
It is a restored Elizabethan building which originally stood at Newton Grange, one and a half miles distant. Newton Grange was owned by Rievaulx Abbey in medieval times and its lands were farmed by the monks. Such monastic outposts sometimes had small chapels and the origins of this building may lie in that connection to Rievaulx.
