The Punch Bowl Inn is a historic pub in Marton cum Grafton, a village in North Yorkshire, in England.
The building was originally constructed in the 16th century, probably as a two-bay house; this oldest section is timber framed. In the 18th century it was greatly extended and converted into a coaching inn. In the 20th century, it was extended to the rear and to the right. In the 1950s and 1960s, it operated as a roadhouse near the Great North Road, and had a motoring theme. The building was grade II listed in 1984. In the 2010s, the pub was owned by Neil Morrissey, and during this period it appeared in a Channel 4 programme. It was purchased by Provenance Inns in 2017, and in 2022 it won Best Food Offer at the Publican Awards.
The pub is rendered, and has a pantile roof. The original part has a timber framed core and a high plinth. There are two storeys and three bays. The doorway has an architrave and an oblong fanlight, the windows are sashes, those on the upper floor horizontally-sliding, and on the roof is a modern dormer.

Christ Church is the parish church of Marton cum Grafton, a village in North Yorkshire, in England.
A church was built in the village in the 12th century, and partly rebuilt some time after 1318. In 1848, it was described as "in the early English style, with a square embattled tower". It was demolished in the late 19th century, and a new church was constructed on a different site, but reusing most of the materials. It was designed by John Ladds again in the Early English style, and was consecrated in 1876. At the time, its vicar was the well-known musician John Robert Lunn, and Schubert's Mass No. 1 was performed at the consecration, claimed at the time to be its first performance in an Anglican church. The church was grade II listed in 1984.
It is built in sandstone with a Welsh slate roof, and consists of a nave, a north porch, and a chancel with a south vestry. On the west gable is an open double bellcote. The north doorway incorporates a Norman doorhead, with a tympanum containing a cross in a roundel. Inside the church is a re-set Norman doorway with three orders of shafts. The window heads in the vestry are 14th century, as is the font, while one bell is believed to be 12th century.
