Catholic Church, Malton
Image: © Gordon Hatton Taken: 21 Apr 2023
The church of St Leonard and St Mary is unusual in that it has medieval origins and would have been a Catholic church at that time, but following the reformation it became a Church of England, only to revert to the Catholic faith in 1971, which makes it the first church to be returned in England. The building is Grade II* listed and has a 15th century tower and 19th century spire.
