Sad to see this church has been left to rot! It?s a beautiful building that needs rescuing.

A quiet little church that feels like a deep breath for the soul. Peaceful, still, and gently healing in its silence.

Called into this lovely little church which was bombed in WW2. The remaining part of the church has been beautifully renovated and was open for the sale of Christmas cards and free to enter.After extensive rebuilding, the church was rehallowed as a chapel of peace.Some strikingly modern elements have taken their place alongside the old. A suitably fiery east window depicting the burning of the church soars above a gold painted aluminium sculpture of the Last Supper, the figures angular and twisted.The old west window remains. Dating from about 1440 and the largest of any parish church in York, it was fortunately removed into store in 1940 for protection and reinstated in the new north wall in 1967 as part of the triumphant restoration.

One of the most beautiful churches in the city, according to The National Gazetteer of Great Britain and Ireland, 1868. With its impressive double-sided clock, topped by the 18th century ?Little Admiral?, St Martin-le-Grand has one of York?s most distinctive and charming facades. But what you see now is a mere fragment of the medieval original. St Martin?s is now a haven of calm in the heart of York, but in 1942 it was reduced to a smouldering ruin during a bombing raid on the city. The church stood desolate until restoration work began in 1961.
