Walkington is formed as a linear village from The place-name “Walkington” is of Anglian West End to East End, with its centre meeting origin and means “Walca’s farm;” however at a cross roads with Kirk Lane and nearby place-names such as Killingwoldgraves Northgate.

The landscape has relatively little woodland cover, and that which is present tends to be in the form of shelterbelts around farmsteads or small isolated stands, often dominated by ash and field maple, which is typical of this southern part of the Wolds.

At the east end, although just outside the Area, the approximately 100 metre stretch of mature trees and the predominance of houses in large plots on the north side of the road, act as an important break from the more suburban nature of development closer to Coppleflat Lane.

Elsewhere properties abut the grass verges, with or without a narrow border incorporating planting.

Traffic

No appraisal of the Walkington Conservation Area would be complete without mention of the impact of traffic on those parts which are close to the B1230 which links Beverley to the M62.

During the 1990s necessary traffic calming Figure 5 West Mill Rise measures were introduced into the village. The first feature to the south of West End is formed by West Mill Rise before reaching 55 West End. West Mill Rise contributes a brick boundary wall and greenery to West End and overlooks West End. The first building to appear on the north side of West End is No.56 (Home Farm), a late 18th century cottage and farm outbuildings. The outbuilding to the left is of interest as being Walkington’s first Wesleyan

Chapel, opened in 1822, and closed in 1877. Figure 4 Entrance to Village at West End 6

These buildings are from different periods and are in different architectural styles, but all contribute positive design elements and building materials.

Standing opposite is No.49, which features a Tuscan door surround incorporating a plaque of Queen Victoria.

The boundary with Redgates is formed by a brick wall enclosing open land. Following Redgates, West End is initially formed by a pair of modern dwellings and then by 19th century properties. Within this section lies the current Walkington Methodist Chapel, which is a building of local interest. At the junction of Kirk Lane and West End is Sherwood Court; a

Northgate. At this cross road stands the Dog & Duck Public House. Built in a turn of the century Tudor revival style, the building is a prominent part of the character of the Conservation Area, with its black and white timber framing being an eye-catching feature. No.3 East End is also of note, as it is one of few buildings built perpendicular to the street. The next building is a further building of prominence to the village – “The Ferguson Fawsitt Arms” (Major Ferguson-Fawsitt being Figure 12 Redgates the late Victorian owner of Walkington Hall).

This 19th century building contributes key characteristics to the Conservation Area with its white render and clay pantiles.

Walkington Hall (unlisted) was built in c.1797 as Walkington Lodge, and extensively altered in c.1870, with the addition of two-storey mullioned bays to the south front and hoodmoulds to the windows. The east front has a Doric Portico. The building is situated within extensive gardens.

Conservation Area already includes a number of farm buildings and an extension of the Conservation Area boundary would include the outlying buildings of Manor Farm into its protection zone. The boundary would be restricted to as far as the outbuildings which pre-date 1855, as shown on the ordnance survey, and which are of particular local interest.

Elsewhere, windows historically have had sliding sashes – either horizontal or vertical – and several of these have been replaced by uPVC – not always sympathetically – where the new windows have not reflected the character of Figure 37 Use of Dormers those that were there previously.

They range from the close battened type, four and six panelled 19th century variants to at least one which reflects the Gothic Revival character of the dwelling.

There are also examples of over-lights, which are square in profile.

Architectural styles vary from vernacular cottages to later Gothic and Revival influenced buildings, but there are few buildings conforming fully to the classical and polite architectural styles. However the architectural value derives mainly from its 18th and 19th century building stock, which modern development has respected and not impeded upon. Although there is no dominant architectural style there are several architectural features, which are prominent within the village and should be considered

when assessing new additions to the Figure 40 No.38 Northgate Conservation Area:

The Dog and & Duck Public House is a prominent building due to its location on the corner of East End and Northgate and its black and white timber panelling, which is not seen elsewhere in the village.

The Methodist Church visually draws the eye, as it is located within a gap in the building line which is not marked out by boundary treatment, and is one of the few examples of public architecture within the village.

The village has few public buildings, but include the former school and School Master’s house and modern Village Hall. The school building, constructed in 1876, is of interest for its use of Gothic architecture.
