Visiting Holy Trinity Goodramgate

About Holy Trinity Goodramgate

Hidden behind a small archway off Goodramgate, this 15th-century church has a rare interior of 17th- and 18th-century box pews, uneven stone floors and medieval stained glass. It is cared for by the Churches Conservation Trust.

Tip: Look for the small gateway on Goodramgate; many visitors walk straight past it.
