Latest reviews | Events in Weaverthorpe
The Ryedale village of Weaverthorpe, at the south eastern corner of North Yorkshire, has a history going back to Saxon times and probably beyond, given that Bronze Age relics have been found nearby. Probably named for a Wolfrith, denoting this was originally a Norse settlement, there is thought to have been an early Saxon church built in the village.
The current church, St Andrew’s, is a rather curious structure, part Saxon, and part Norman, with a strange tower from which the interior staircase bulges as if it was something of an afterthought. The grey stones of the church are striking, and it is well worth passing through the quaint lych-gate and going inside to see in particular the curved and painted roof.
Substantial enough to have retained its post office and primary school, Weaverthorpe also has two pubs, The Bluebell Inn being noted for its food. There is a little stream running through the middle of the village, alongside the main street.
Although it is well away from main roads, and none the worse for that, Weaverthorpe provides a good base for exploring the Wolds, and the beautiful coast just a short drive east, with Filey, Flamborough, Bridlington and Scarborough all within striking distance.
