There are two entries for Warthill [variant spellings] in the Domesday survey [https://opendomesday.org/place/SE6755/warthill/] [accessed 16 December 2019] neither of which mentions cleric or church in it. The entry for this parish in George Lawton's Collectio rerun eclesiasticarum de Dioecesi Eboracensi (London: J.G. and F. Rivington, 1842: 471) quotes Torre: "Torre says The Prebendary is Rector, and hath the tithes, for which he shall find a Chaplain. No endowment. There have been Vicars earlier than 1330." The entry for this parish in the Victoria County History (York North Riding, vol. 2, 1923) notes: "At what date the vicarage was ordained is not known, [...] but it was valued at 60s. 8d. in 1535 [...] The church of ST. MARY is a small modern building consisting of a chancel, nave and tower on the south side, forming a porch. The ancient church was pulled down in 1787 and a brick building substituted by Robert Bowes. The present structure was begun in 1873".
