Helmsley Parish Church tower

Helmsley Parish Church tower. The tower was rebuilt in about 1865 along with much of the church but within the church much early stonework survives (see page 3).

 

The original beautiful perpendicular windows were replaced in the 1868 'renovation' with mock early lancet style windows, but to my untutored eye they look pretty good in style.
