Hugh 2nd Abbot of Selby directed the first building 1100 although there was a church as Brayton in 1086. Today the church is a rich heritage. It consists of the choir with aisles, chancel, lofty steeple at west end of three divisions, each front having a find Norman arch. The decorated chancel joins a perpendicular choir by a Norman arch with chevron mouldings and elaborate carving of capital. The Norman doorway has a receding acrch rising from 3 circular columns. The inner arch has a moulding of chevrons. The second arch has 17 sculptured devices of monsters knights etc. in medallions. The third has 35 beak heads varied by human heads with pointed beards. A font was presented by Canon Jefferson of Thicket Priory in 1861, but the original Norman one is used now.
