DescriptionSt Helens Church Barmby On The Marsh.jpg
English: St Helen's, Barmby on the Marsh, East Riding of Yorkshire, England.
During the reign of Henry VIII a tithe barn at Barmby was converted into a chapel with the addition of a chancel and a wooden tower with a spire. By 1773 the wooden tower at St. Helen's was considered unsafe and replaced with the present dome-capped brick steeple at a cost of £120. The chancel was rebuilt and the rest of the church restored in 1870. Much of the old graveyard has apparently been abandoned to nature and a new burial ground has been laid out recently at Barmby Cutting to the east of the village.
