Kirkbymoorside Memorial Hall

Kirkbymoorside Memorial Hall is a historic building in Kirkbymoorside, a town in North Yorkshire, in England. The building was constructed as the town's tolbooth in about 1730, possibly on the site of an earlier incarnation. It originally had three storeys, but it suffered a major fire in 1871, and was rebuilt reduced to two storeys. In 1919, it was sold to a trust of townspeople. Plaques were placed on the hall in memory of local victims, and the building was renamed the "Memorial Hall". From the 1920s until the 1960s, it was partly used to house the Electric Cinema. The building was grade II listed in 1955. It is used as an events venue, and to host a weekly market.

St Chad's Church, Sproxton

St Chad's Church is an Anglican church in Sproxton, North Yorkshire, a village in England. Sproxton was long in the parish of All Saints' Church, Helmsley. A chapel was built at West Newton Grange in Oswaldkirk, perhaps in the 1640s. By the 1870s it was being used as a barn, and William Duncombe, Viscount Helmsley gave the building to Charles Gray, Vicar of Helmsley. He had it taken down and re-erected to provide a chapel of ease in Sproxton. The work was supervised by George Gilbert Scott Jr. and Temple Moore. Some sources describe it as the smallest church in North Yorkshire, with just nine pews. The building was grade II listed in 1955, along with its gate and gateposts. The church is built of limestone with a stone slate roof, and consists of a nave and a chancel in one unit. On the west gable is a wooden bellcote with a pyramidal lead roof. The doorway has a round-arched head, a fanlight, imposts and a hood mould, and above it is an oval window. At the entrance to the churchyard are wrought iron gates, and sandstone gate posts, each with scroll moulding and a double entablature with a moulded cornice and a ball finial. The north window of the nave contains some 15th-century glass. Inside, there is a reredos with a triptych in plaster, and at the west end a 19th-century screen with a tiny gallery above. The gateposts outside are 19th-century work, while the wrought iron gate is 20th century. See also Listed buildings in Sproxton, North Yorkshire References
St John the Baptist's Church, Pockley

St John the Baptist's Church is the parish church of Pockley, a village in North Yorkshire, in England. Until the late 19th century, residents of Pockley worshipped at All Saints' Church, Helmsley. In 1870, a church was built, to a design credited to either George Gilbert Scott or George Gilbert Scott Jr. The building was grade II listed in 1985. The church is built of limestone with sandstone dressings and a Westmorland slate roof. It consists of a nave, a south porch, and a chancel with a north vestry. At the west end is a central buttress carrying a bellcote with four openings. Inside, there is a 13th-century font, which was moved from All Saints in Helmsley. The chancel screen and other furnishings were provided by Temple Moore in 1898-99 and rood beam figures by Lang of Oberammergau. The church's unusual heating system was based on a Roman hypocaust. Warm air came through underfloor ducts from a coke-fired stove beneath the church. Originally the fuel for the stove was carried through a 25-foot brick-lined tunnel on a miniature railway which is still in existence but rarely used. The hot air heating system was restored in 2012 and for the first time in over 60 years the church is now warm for services. See also Listed buildings in Pockley References

Harrogate Theatre

Harrogate Theatre is a Grade II listed performance hall and theatre, located in Harrogate, North Yorkshire, England. It is a full hemp house theatre that uses a theatrical rigging system to fly components like curtains, lights and scenery on and off the stage. Unusually, however, the theatre does not have stage doors in the usual way. Instead, personnel enter through the main entrance, then a raised set of barn doors at the back of the building is used for the load-in/load-out. A brown plaque is displayed outside the theatre paying tribute to some of the famous performers who have appeared on Harrogate Theatre's stage, including Sarah Bernhardt, Charlie Chaplin, Steve Harley and Cockney Rebel, Steve Harley (as a 4-man acoustic set, not as part of Cockney Rebel), Andy Parsons, Trevor Howard, George Robey, Ellen Terry, Fats Waller, Ken Dodd, Ben Kingsley and Eddie Izzard. History The Harrogate Grand Opera House was designed by architect Frank Tugwell, whose other work includes the Futurist Theatre in Scarborough and the Savoy Theatre in London. The building opened on 13 January 1900 with a charity performance for soldiers fighting in the Boer War. This was followed by a run of Mr J. Tully's pantomime, Dick Whittington. Harold Styan debuted there as a gymnast in 1911. The theatre still possesses many of its original front of house fixtures and fittings, as well as a modelled plaster frieze by sculptor Frances Darlington in the foyer that depicts the development of arts through the ages. Harrogate Theatre Scenic Services As was typical for a repertory theatre at the time, Harrogate Grand Opera house was home to an on-site workshop to build their sets. This was eventually set up as a commercial venture under the name of Harrogate Theatre Scenic Services (HTSS) and it is now a dedicated workshop located in Starbeck, Harrogate. HTSS constructs and delivers bespoke sets for venues and companies, both in the UK and internationally. It operates with an experienced team of woodworkers, metalworkers, scenic artists and sculptors.

St Peter's Church, Helperthorpe

St Peter's Church is the parish church of Helperthorpe, a village in North Yorkshire, in England. A church was first recorded in Helperthorpe in the 12th century. A new building was constructed in the 16th century, and was restored in 1829, producing what was described as "a small edifice with a low tower". By 1851 it was recorded as having only one regular worshipper, so the church was demolished and the parish merged into that of St Andrew's Church, Weaverthorpe. Between 1872 and 1875, a new chapel of ease was constructed, commissioned by Sir Tatton Sykes, 5th Baronet. It was designed by George Edmund Street, who also designed a vicarage.

St Edmund's Church, Knapton

St Edmund's Church is an Anglican church in East Knapton, a village in North Yorkshire, in England. In the Mediaeval period, Knapton had a chapel of ease in the parish of St Peter's Church, Wintringham. In 1856, it was described simply as a "small building". In about 1870, it was demolished, and a new church was built in the grounds of Knapton Hall. John Gibson and Son are described as having built the north aisle and chancel between 1870 and 1872, and restored the bellcote; it is probable that the same firm designed the remainder of the building around this time. The church reuses some earlier stonework in the south wall. Nikolaus Pevsner praised the building as "one of the most enjoyable churches in the Riding". Around 1970, the church became redundant, but it was transferred to a private trust and was used for around six services each year. The building was grade II listed in 1987. By 2012, the building was in a poor state of repair, needing a new roof, and it has since closed for worship and been deconsecrated. The church is built of sandstone, and has a slate roof with pierced terracotta cresting. It consists of a polygonal west baptistry with a south porch, a nave, a north aisle, a chancel and a south vestry. On the west end of the nave is a bellcote. The vestry has a semi-octagonal plan, an octagonal spire and a finial. Set in the south wall are three Norman corbels. Inside, the original pulpit, lectern and prayer desk survive, and some 17th-century pew panelling has been reused on the north wall. There is an octagonal stone font, and a painted royal coat of arms dating from 1676. The windows are filled with stained glass, and the roofs have painted decoration, that in the baptistry depicting animals and vegetation. See also Listed buildings in Scampston References

St Mary and St Laurence's Church, Rosedale Abbey

St Mary and St Laurence's Church (also sometimes referred to as St Lawrence's) is the parish church of Rosedale Abbey, a village in North Yorkshire, in England. Rosedale Priory was founded in the 12th century, and its chapel was rebuilt in the 14th century. After the Dissolution of the Monasteries, it was retained as a place of worship for the village, becoming a chapel of ease to St Andrew's Church, Middleton. In 1839, the chapel was demolished, and a new church was built, to a design by Lewis Vulliamy, incorporating one window from the old building. The cost of £665 was met by public subscription. Every subscription is recorded on the panels of the wall beneath the gallery. In 1876 (although other sources say 1879), the church was given its own parish, and perhaps at this time, a gallery was installed inside. The building was grade II listed in 1987. The church is built of sandstone with a slate roof. It consists of a nave and a chancel in a single unit, and a south vestry. On the west gable is a gabled bellcote with a pointed bell opening. The windows are tall lancets, the 14th-century window having two lights. Inside, the pews were made in 1907 by Robert Thompson, while the oak lectern is 19th century and was made in the Netherlands. There is a "bishop's chair" made of stones from the priory, and an old gravestone with a cross. In the 1970s the sanctuary was extended, and two side vestries created. Pews, by Mousey Thompson, were repositioned to create the central aisle and in the 1980s a screen was placed to divide the church and create space for meetings and Sunday School. In 1984, Rosedale became part of the United Benefice of Lastingham, but remains its own parish. See also Listed buildings in Rosedale East Side References
