Normanby, Ryedale

Normanby is a village and civil parish in North Yorkshire, England. It is about 4 miles (6.4 km) west of Pickering. It lies on the main road between Malton and Kirkbymoorside. In the old days Normanby had 14 alehouses and was a major stopping point due to its location halfway between Teesside and Humberside. These days Normanby has only one pub and a church. All the houses in Normanby are built along the busy main road. The bridge to the south of the village was built in the mid 18th century and is narrow, so in recent years it has been the scene of many accidents. The bridge takes traffic over the River Seven which runs to the east of the village on its way from Rosedale to the River Rye further south.

St Andrew's Church, Normanby

St Andrew's Church is the parish church of Normanby, a village near Malton, North Yorkshire, in England. The church was built in the mid 12th century, from which period the nave arcade and some other fragments survive. The chancel arch dates from about 1300. The remainder of the church was rebuilt in 1718, and then heavily restored by Temple Moore between 1893 and 1895. Moore's work included the addition of a north aisle, partial reconstruction of the chancel and its arch, and addition of a porch. The building was grade II* listed in 1953. The church is built of sandstone, the roof of the nave and porch are tiled, and the chancel has a stone slate roof. The church consists of a nave, a north aisle, a south porch, and a chancel with a north vestry. On the west gable is a gabled bellcote with twin arches and a cross. In the porch is a small re-set Norman window, and the doorway contains part of a roll-moulded arch. The 15th-century east window has been reset in the north wall. Inside, there is a piscina with elements from the 12th and 13th centuries, an octagonal 17th-century font, and an alms box which may be 17th century.
