Introduction

This page lists, and provides data summaries of, North Riding of Yorkshire place-names. Similar pages exist for the East, and West Ridings as well as for the entire shire.

A systematic search for relevant field names in all tithe awards for North Riding townships[2] was completed on 9 Sep. 2020. Everything found in the course of this search has a page of its own in this section of IRHB. However, there is still a brief list of place-names to be added from early Ordnance Survey maps, the English Place-Name Society's volume on the North Riding of Yorkshire,[3] and Dobson & Taylor's list of Robin Hood-related place-names.[4]
