Stained glass window detail, Sturton le Steeple church
Glass by R. J. Newbery of London, 1902.
Ss Peter & Paul church, Sturton le Steeple

Grade II* listed

Founded around 1180, the south arcade was rebuilt in the 13th C. and other parts in the 14th C. The upper stage of the tower and 12 pinnacles were added in the 15th C.
The church was restored in 1870 by Ewan Christian, but in 1901 there was a fire and the 15th C. rood screen was destroyed. The church was restored by Fowler. All the pre 1901 stained glass was replaced.

There are several interesting monuments in the church, and a window dedicated to Richard Battye (d. 1873)and also the east window to a member of the Foljambe family.
