All Saints' Church is the parish church of Barlby, a village in North Yorkshire in England.

The church, in 2007

A chapel was constructed in Barlby by 1481, dependent on St Mary the Virgin, Hemingbrough. By the late 18th century, the chapel was in ruins, and it was demolished. A replacement church was built between 1779 and 1780, a rectangular structure with an apse at the east end, an octagonal bellcote, and a vestry on the north side. A gallery at the west end was added in 1811, followed in the 1840s by two projections on the north side to house additional pews. The vestry was rebuilt in 1866.[1][2]

The church was rebuilt and extended in 1895, when it was given its own parish.[1] The northern extensions were removed, and a chancel, porch and new vestry added. The interior was entirely reconstructed, and the gallery was removed. The church was Grade II listed in 1986.[2][3]

The church is built of brick, and has a two-level roof of pantiles and stone slates. There is a three-bay nave and a two-bay chancel. The windows have round heads, and that at the east end has 19th-century stained glass. The octagonal wooden bellcote survives, and the chancel has a brick bell turret.[3]
