(2679) Grade II listed church tower - St John's. Rest of church long gone it would seem. Had meant to bag this one a few years whilst staying in Harrogate, but ran out of time then. Roadside parking today then followed PRoW across field to small enclosed graveyard. Everything looking a bit shabby to be honest, but I liked this one. Something a bit different. A cut BM should have been present on the tower - W face SW angle - but looks like it has been deliberately destroyed. A section of stone has been gouged out at that spot.

Along bridleway from present church in dense mist. Quite eerie inspecting tower among gravestones. But why a picnic table in middle of graveyard? !

SE38/T007. Church Tower bolt and centre. The tower still exists but the rest of the church has gone. Located about half a mile N of the present church. Surrounded by trees.
