About
About St Gregory's Minster, Kirkdale
St Gregory's Minster is an Anglo-Saxon church with a rare sundial, in Kirkdale near Kirkbymoorside, Vale of Pickering, North Yorkshire, England. It is a Grade I listed building. The minster was built c. 1060 on the site of an earlier church, and is dedicated to St Gregory the Great, who was pope from 590 to 604. Major modifications were completed in the 15th century and in the 1800s.
The church was restored during 1907–1909. The building is similar in style and age to that of St Hilda's Church, Ellerburn. The church is open during the day; volunteer stewards provide information to visitors and services are offered weekly. The maintenance of the fabric of the building is helped by financial contributions from The Friends of St Gregory's Minster.
The Friends' Annual General Meeting is followed by the Kirkdale Lecture about the parish and its environs.
