Notable contents of the church
Near the communion rail is a brass of a knight, Sir Richard Aske, and his wife Margaret, (1460), set in Eglestone marble.
It is thought to have originally been in Ellerton priory before the dissolution. Ellerton is a mile upstream of the church.
To the North side of the altar is a grave slab of c.1300 carved in relief on a hard fossiliferous, almost certainly from Purbeck in Dorset. The design is very typical of the Purbeck workshops with a cross formed from four broken circles.
Given the cost of transport in medieval England it is clearly a high status monument. Only a handful of Purbeck slabs are known this far north and there is a nearly identical slab at Londsborough and two others with different designs at Skipwith and Sherburn.
