Summary

Description
English: There has been a church here since Norman times (if not earlier), built by Henry de Lacy, Lord of the manor, as chapel of ease to All Saints, Pontefract. The present church dates from c.1750, initially without a tower. The tower was built in the 1830s after the fashion of that time. It was heightened in 1887 to mark the Golden Jubilee of Queen Victoria along with the rebuilding of the Chancel and removal of the galleries. It had 'tubular' bells initially, but in 1995 these were replaced with a ring of ten conventional bells in memory of Revd Edward Beaumont, Vicar of Knottingley 1954 - 1970 (sources: parish website and HE listing, grade II, entry 1225755).
