About Ingleton

St Mary's Church is the parish church of Ingleton, North Yorkshire, a village in England. There was a church on the site by the 12th century.

The church is built of stone with a slate roof, and consists of a nave with a clerestory, north and south aisles, a south porch, a chancel with a north vestry, and a west tower. The tower has three stages, diagonal buttresses, a west doorway with a pointed arch, a chamfered surround and a hood mould, above which is a three-light window, a south clock face, two-light bell openings, a string course, and an embattled parapet with corner finials. Inside, some fragments of wall painting survive, but the highlight is the 12th century font, described by Nikolaus Pevsner as "one of the best in the West Riding". It is cylindrical, and is carved with an arcade design, with fourteen Biblical scenes. It was rediscovered in the 18th century, cleaned and brought back into use in 1830, and mounted on its current base in 1858.
