The Headland Benefice St Michael's Church, Bempton

Heritage Open Day: Five Headland Churches: Follow the stunning coastline to Sewerby, Flamborough, Bempton, Speeton & Reighton. Exploring history, heritage and hidden curiosities within the unique ancient churches at the heart of the villages. A slightly wonky octagonal tower lantern turret rises up from Saxon foundations, there is a goblet shaped font, 21st century adaptations, an unusual Chancel screen and a stained glass window proud with sea parrots. Once linked to Bridlington Priory one of the bells is inscribed “1371 in memory of John de Thwing”, better known as St. John of Bridlington. In the early 1440s, a separate Parish of Bempton came into existence. Parish Priests were now the spiritual leaders of local communities.
