Scene Description: Photo caption: "The 17th century South porch, hides a 13th century door, beautifully carved. It's likely that this door has been reset into the extended walls, as all the masonry around it is form the 14th century."

Lands in the Barony of Appleby were not included in the Domesday survey. Curwen (1932) notes: "This church was granted, together with the church of St. Lawrence, to Richard the abbot and to the convent of St. Mary at York by Ranulph de Meschines, about the year 1088. The grant was confirmed by Henry I. It was a collegiate church". Curwen (ibid.) reports that the Commonwealth Survey of 1657 recommended "that the parish church of St. Michael [...] may conveniently be united to the parish church of St. Lawrence in Appleby for the better maintenance of an able minister it being a public place and the profit of both places".
