The smithy was a meeting place as much frequented as the inn or the church and a centre of communication for the local inhabitants. Magazine The smith himself was also once looked upon as the community's adviser, sometimes even its oracle; and such traditional respect accorded to the craftsman in iron was heightened by a certain awe of the mighty man who could shape the highly-resistant substance of iron into decorative, as well as highly practical, objects. More than just" a farrier, the blacksmith was, once upon a time, an essential figure in a community which depended on the horse for transport as well as to provide the motive power for farming. 440 JUNE 1990 Some Observations on the Ancestry and Connections of Thomas Hardy Rupert Willoughby Nelson's Memorial Rings George A.

The original idea was to pull together lots of old photographs and postcards and publish a Topcliffe scrapbook. However, it seemed to me to be also an opportunity to have another look at the history of Topcliffe and try to dig a little further into the knowledge than had been written in other histories. This then is the latest in a line of Topcliffe's histories produced by such people as J. B. Jefferson in his history of Thirsk in 1821, Edmund Bogg in his various histories of the Vale of Mowbray and Mary Watson in her Topcliffe Book in the late 1970s.

  • Rainton Parish Plan 2016
    Published by the Rainton Parish Plan Steering Committee Members: Chris Andrews, Kim Pallott, Sally Schofield, David Cornmell, Nathan Schofield, Mike Pallott, Oliver Jones, Malcolm Harwood. 2 Rainton Parish Plan 2016. The Parish of Rainton first published a plan in August 2003. It was reviewed in October 2008. The contents of this plan are formed around the Village survey carried out in February 2016. Detailed summaries with findings are to be found further on in this plan. The last five years have been relatively quiet in Rainton. The A1M motorway construction, the addition of a permanent bridge over that road, the opening of an enlarged recreation field all have been completed. However Rainton is not without its issues. The major preoccupation of its parishioners, in 2013 and 2008 was and still is, unchecked housing development. There is a strong desire amongst the population of Rainton for the village to retain its village attributes. As can be seen from the detailed results there is still a major problem with on road car parking at night. This has and will continue to present a challenge for everybody. 3 Utility services continue to be poor in Rainton. Foul water (Sewerage) disposal is well below what one would expect for the 21st century. The capacity of telephone landlines is at saturation. There has however been an improvement in High Speed Broadband to most, but not all, of the village. Currently we have no threats from major energy developers such as wind power and hydraulic “fracking”. We are not immune however as a major energy recovery plant is being built at Allerton that will burn household rubbish, which cannot be recovered/recycled and which would otherwise go to landfill.

  • Robert Metcalfe (B
    Robert Metcalfe (b. 1804, d. 1887) Elizabeth Barker Robert Metcalfe was baptised on 7 August 1804 in the parish of Topcliffe by Thirsk. The parish records show that his father was also named Robert Metcalfe, a labourer, and his mother was Rachael Clarke (1). The family home was in the village of Rainton, in the township of Rainton with Newby, which is close to the estate of Newby Park, owned by the Robinson family, the Lords Grantham, and later the Earls de Grey (2). Robert never actually married, but the Topcliffe by Thirsk parish records reveal that he nearly did marry in the year 1834. There is an entry in the register of an intended marriage between Robert Metcalfe and Jane Fenwick, whose family also lived in Rainton. However, the entry is crossed out, which suggests that the marriage did not take place (3). There is no trace of Robert in Rainton in the census of 1841. However, the 1851 census for Rainton shows that Robert was living there, and that he describes himself as unmarried, aged 46, and gives his occupation as a master gardener (4). It is possible that by then he may have been working at Newby Park, as the entrance to the park and mansion house is only about half a mile away from the village. The OS map for 1853 shows that a road runs eastwards from the village to a crossroads, and the entrance to the park is at this point. There is a lodge, and behind it is a large walled kitchen garden (5).
