About Church of St Martin

The Church of St Martin is the Church of England parish church serving Seamer, a village near Scarborough in North Yorkshire. It remains an active place of worship and has held Grade I listed status since 1967.

Dating from the 12th century, the church retains its original nave, chancel and the lower section of its western tower. Built of sandstone and roofed with stone flags, it was enlarged during the 15th century with a north aisle, chapel, vestry and south porch.
