More about this scene
Lying east of Pocklington, this village was bought in the 18th century by the 5th Duke of Devonshire. He sold it in 1845 to the railway entrepreneur George Hudson. Within five years he had been declared bankrupt, and the village became part of the Londesborough estate. The village school for up to 54 children was open from 1854 to 1958. Lady Nunburnholme, who lived here until 1929, decreed that the Devonshire Arms pub, opposite this bridge, was to be closed.
