Scene Description: Source caption: "St. Patrick's Church, Patrick Brompton. Occupying an imposing position at the entrance to Wensleydale stands one of only two churches in Yorkshire dedicated to St. Patrick. The building is mostly of the late 12th to 14th century, as illustrated by the design of the columns in the north and south arcades. The chancel is a masterpiece of 14th century architecture and it contains several interesting features – a confessional window, a three-stall sedilia with the decorative heads of a bishop or abbot and priest, a piscina for washing, niches with nodding ogee canopies supported by sculptured heads, and a large monumental canopy. Beside the chancel arch are the remains of a spiral staircase, which once gave access to the rood or crucifixion screen. The Church also houses a good collection of stained glass by Lavers, Barraud and Westlake, Barnett, Hardman, Kempe and Company, Hodgsons, and Tute. The north aisle contains some fragments of 15th century stained glass. The tower has three bells dated around 1400, 1686 and 1703."

There is an entry for [Patrick] Bromton [variant spelling] in the Domesday survey [https://opendomesday.org/place/SE2190/patrick-brompton/] [accessed 13 August 2019] but it mentions neither cleric nor church in it. The entry for this parish in the Victoria County History (York North Riding, vol. 1, 1914) notes: "The church of ST. PATRICK [...] Though so much repaired externally as to look rather dull, it is a very beautiful building within and the work is of two main dates, c. 1180 and 1310–30 [...] The font is modern". The illustration in the VCH entry (ibid.) shows a font located at the west end of the south aisle. Pevsner (1985) notes: "Stoup. A re-used base of a round pier." The object is now [March 2008] disused in a corner of the church, with other fragments of old stones piled on it; it resembles the upturned foot of a column, the mouldings now at the top sides.
