Staxton
A Memory of Staxton.
My grandma (Whinnie) and father grew up here, and owned Staxton Garage for a while (Mike Hearing). I spent the most enjoyable childhood there. It makes me smile thinking of all of the older people, always smiling and telling a good yarn (story) as you walked though the village.
It is a beautiful place, you have the River Hertford less than a mile away, and the Wolds on your doorstep (the best playground in the world). You have everthing there, and it doesn't take much searching unless you have your eyes shut. It is worth parking up and enjoying instead of driving past - it doesn't look much at 60 miles a hour, but there is more there than meets the eye.
