SAINT ANDEWS PARISH CHURCH GRINTON
This Parish was appropriated to the Augustinian Priory of Bridlington in the 12th century by
Maud de Gant [or Gaunt] and originally staffed by members of that community. From 1272 a
vicar was appointed by them until the Priory's dissolution in 1537. The Crown was patron until
1890 when patronage was transferred to the Bishop of Ripon. The Parish was in York diocese
until 1547 when it was transferred to Chester diocese. In 1836 it became a part of the new
Diocese of Ripon. The Parish is in both the Archdeaconry and the rural Deanery of Richmond.
