Situated atop a hill in East Yorkshire, this has been considered a sacred site since pre-Christian times. Pagans erected a stone obelisk (the Rudston Monolith) here around 1600 BC; it was later adapted for worship by early Catholics. All Saints Church was constructed after the Norman Conquest of 1066.
Another notable attraction at All Saints is author Winifred Holtby (a Rudston native), who is buried in the churchyard. There is also a memorial plaque for her in the south aisle of the church. (Text by Robert Edwards)
