St Oswald's Church is an Anglican church in East Harlsey, a village in North Yorkshire.

A church was built on the site in the 12th century, from which period some of the walls survive, and there is a 15th-century window in the south wall of the chancel. It was altered in the 17th century, and the south porch and bellcote are of this date. [1] The church was largely rebuilt in 1885 by Austin, Johnson and Hicks. [2] It was grade II* listed in 1970. [3]

The church is built of stone with slate roofs, and consists of a nave, a north aisle, a south porch, and a chancel with a north aisle. At the west end is a double bellcote with rusticated stonework, four-centred arched bell openings, a moulded cornice, and a pyramidal gable surmounted and flanked by squat obelisks. The porch has a coped gable with three ball finials, and contains a four-centred arched opening with a chamfered surround. Inside, there is an effigy of a knight dating from the 1320s and an 18th-century monument of carved marble. [3] [4]
