Holy Cross Church is a parish church which serves the village and parish of Gilling East in North Yorkshire, England.[1] The parish contains the villages of Gilling, Cawton, and Grimston.[2] The church is dedicated to the Holy Cross, although it has been referred to as either the church of Saint Mary or the church of Saint Helena (the queen who by legend discovered the true cross) in the past.[2] It is part of a four-church benefice which includes Gilling, Oswaldkirk, Stonegrave, and Ampleforth under a single vicar, Rev James Trowsdale.[2][3] The church was designated as a Grade I listed building on 4 January 1955.[4]
