Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use British English Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox church The Church of All Saints is a grade I listed building and former parish church for Great Ayton, North Yorkshire, England. The churchyard is known to contain several graves to family members of Captain Cook, a noted seafarer.
All Saints was replaced as the main parish church in the 1870s by the Church of Christ. The entire western end of the church, including its tower, was removed in 1880. All Saints is still open for people to be able to visit at certain times of the year.
History
Elements of the present church of All Saints date back to the 8th century, and a church in Great Ayton (Atun), was mentioned in the Domesday survey of 1086.[1] In the early part of the 12th century, Robert de Meynell is recorded as having given the church at Great Ayton to Whitby Abbey.Шаблон:Sfn The structure of the present church dates back to sometime after 1175, being recorded as being built "in the last quarter of the 12th century". The chancel measures Шаблон:Convert by Шаблон:Convert, the nave Шаблон:Convert by Шаблон:Convert, and a south porch Шаблон:Convert by Шаблон:Convert.[2] The porch is believed to be a 13th-century addition to the old Norman doorway into the church.Шаблон:Sfn Renovations in the late 18th century (1788–1789) saw the roof stripped of its lead to pay for the tower to be rebuilt,[3] only for it, and the a large western section of the church, to be pulled down in 1880.[4] At the same time, despite the church not being publicly used, some of the windows were replaced in the church.Шаблон:Sfn
All Saints was replaced by a newer church, closer to the main road through Great Ayton in 1876.[5] The building of Christ Church was precipitated by the state of the All Saints structure, and the increase in the population, related to the boom in ironstone mining in the area.[6] However, the graveyard was still used routinely until 1881, before a new one was opened on the north side of the village.Шаблон:Sfn Some burials continued at All Saints; a report from November 1886 recalls the burial there of a Dr William Augustus Loy.[7]
The church was grade I listed in 1966, notable being its Georgian pulpit, Tudor windows and late-Medieval king post roof.[8] In modern times, the church is open for visits, special events, midweek Communion and celebratory services on Captain Cook's birthday.Шаблон:Sfn The church does not have any heating, or electric lighting. Candles are used to provide light.[9]

Churchyard
Several members of Captain Cook's family are buried in the churchyard.[11][12] Their burial plot is marked by a grade II listed headstone made from sandstone.[13] Cook's father, also called James, is believed to have carved many of the Cook family headstones in the churchyard.Шаблон:Sfn
