Saint Peter and Saint Paul Parish Church Stokesley


The first written record of the church is in the Domesday Survey of William the First where it records "a church and priest". It was one of the few churches left in the Cleveland area of North Yorkshire after William the Conqueror's harrying of the North (1069) in an attempt to subdue the Northerners.
