St. Nicholas Church
Norton, Ryedale District, North Yorkshire, England
Church of England.
Believed to be first Parish Church
The mediaeval church of St Nicholas was replaced (in 1816) by a Georgian style church of the same name, and since demolished.
"Norton's first place of worship was sited on the river bank near to the baptism place and dedicated to St Nicholas, often invoked as patron saint of fords and bridges.
Today it is difficult to find much trace of the ancient church. A medieval building was replaced by a Georgian one in 1816 and this in turn was demolished in 1900. Anyone visiting the local swimming baths can see the foundation platform of the old church when they look to the right when crossing the pseudo-bridge at the entrance of the building. There is still a St Nicholas Street in the parish and the short road near the baths is still Church Street."
