Introduction


St Mary, Rievaulx

Rievaulx's church, formed from the ruins of the Abbey's slipper chapel, serves those who live in this hamlet, next to the world-famous Rievaulx Abbey (in the care of English Heritage), with fortnightly 11am services (1st and 3rd Sundays).

This recently renovated building is available at all times as a place of quiet and pilgrimage for visitors in this World Heritage site.
