Description: St Mary Magdalene and St Helena Church, Nunkeeling in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England. Looking southwest towards the ruin of St Mary Magdalene and St Helena Church. The church was given to the Benedictine priory founded here in 1150. After the dissolution, it remained the parish church but fell into disrepair. In 1810 the present structure was rebuilt using material from the old church. In the 20th century the church became disused and in about 1940 the roof and end gables were removed. The parish council stepped in to prevent its demolition in 1985 and now maintains it.
