St Mary's Church is an Anglican church in Farndale East, a civil parish in North Yorkshire, in England.
The church was built the hamlet now known as "Church Houses", to a design by William Stonehouse, and was completed in 1831. Between 1907 and 1914, it was restored by Temple Moore, who also added a baptistry and a new west front. The church was Grade II listed in 1955.[1][2]
The church is built of sandstone with a slate roof. It consists of a west baptistry, vestry and porch, a five-bay nave and a chancel. On the west gable is a bellcote with angle turrets and pyramidal caps. Inside, the nave has a king post roof, and the chancel has a barrel vault.[1][3]
