St Denys History

St Denys built on the site of a Saxon church and possibly of a Roman temple (the earliest records date from c. 1154). Inside some of the earliest stained glass in York can be found: the sculpted Norman doorway and 15th century heraldic roof are also noteworthy features. The figure of St Denys is seen in the 15th-century east window. Also, only 40 English churches are dedicated to the French saint.

The church was originally a lot larger than it is now. Part of the church subsided after the king’s fishpool was drained. Another part gave way shortly after as a sewer was being built nearby. The current main entrance is situated where a window used to be. Originally it also had a spirebut. Unfortunately, between the 17th and 18th century it was hit by a cannon shot and also struck by lightning. The spire became removed 20 years later after being partially blown down.

The church was rebuilt in 1798. From 1846 to 1847 there were further alterations including the rebuilding of the west end and tower, and north and south arcades under the supervision of the architect Thomas Pickersgill.
