The Church of St John the Baptist, Grimston, now consists simply of nave and chancel with south transept, west tower and south porch.  The north transept collapsed in around 1740 and was not rebuilt.  It is built largely in the local ironstone, and the present building dates essentially from the early 13th century, with rebuilding around 1400.
