Photo of Lastingham, From Lyd Hill 1964

More about this scene

Lastingham is fewer than seven miles northwest of Pickering. In AD654 St Cedd, the brother of St Chad, built a monastery here, where St Chad died of the yellow plague in AD664. The crypt of the present church is thought to occupy the site of an earlier structure where St Cedd's bones were laid to rest.
