St Nicholas' Church is the parish church of Bransdale, North Yorkshire, a village in England.

There was a chapel in Bransdale by the 13th century, probably connected with Keldholme Priory. [1] The current building dates from about 1800, and based on its style, Historic England attributes its design for John Smith of Farndale. [2] The building was reroofed in 1886, and extended in 1934. [1] It was Grade II listed in 1987. [2]

The church is constructed of stone and has a roof of stone flags, with a slate roof on the porch. It consists of a nave and a chancel under a continuous roof, a south porch and a west tower. The tower has a single stage, a louvred bell opening on the south side, a raised parapet band, and coped battlements. The porch is gabled and has a round-arched opening. The windows on the sides contain paired lights with pointed cusped heads, and the east window has a pointed head and three lights. Inside, there is a sedilia moved from elsewhere, a tub font, and a barrel-vaulted roof. [2] [3]
