Roseberry Topping a Short Tour of the Celebrated Landmark the Book “Roseberry Topping”
Roseberry Topping a short tour of the celebrated landmark The book “Roseberry Topping” This presentation is taken from a book, published in 2006, by the local history group Great Ayton Community Archaeology and the landscape photographer Joe Cornish, who lives in Great Ayton. All 3,000 copies of the publication were sold in six months or so, and copies rarely, if ever, appear on the second-hand market. Geology Roseberry Topping consists of almost horizontal strata arranged like a layer cake. Saltwick Sandstone cap Whitby Mudstone (with jet at lower levels) Cleveland Ironstone Staithes Sandstone Origin of the name The name Roseberry Topping derives from Othenesberg, Old Norse for the hill of Odin, named by the Scandinavian invaders. The initial “R” arose from the village of Newton-under- Roseberry, with alliteration of the “r” of “under”. Toppinn is Old Norse for hill. This became Anglicised into Topping. Roseberry is the only location in Britain to be overtly named after Odin, and was clearly held in high regards by the Scandinavians. Lord Rosebery In spite of the slightly different spelling, the title “Lord Rosebery” does derive from the Topping. The Earldom of Roseberry was created in 1703 by Queen Anne, in recognition of Sir Archibald Primrose’s support for William of Orange. The Primrose family owned land near Roseberry Topping, and thought the name “Roseberry” had a good sound to it, hence they adopted the name for the title. Over the years it lost one of its “r” letters. The Fifth Earl, shown here, is remembered for having three ambitions; to marry the richest woman in England, to become Prime Minister and to win the Derby with one of his horses. -
Yorkshire-Coast--Moorland-Scenes
Produced by Ted Garvin, Ginny Brewer and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team YORKSHIRE COAST AND MOORLAND SCENES Painted and Described By GORDON HOME _Second Edition_ 1907 _First Edition published April 26, 1904 Second Edition published April, 1907_ PREFACE page 1 / 92 It may seem almost superfluous to explain that this book does not deal with the whole of Yorkshire, for it would obviously be impossible to get even a passing glimpse of such a great tract of country in a book of this nature. But I have endeavoured to give my own impressions of much of the beautiful coast-line, and also some idea of the character of the moors and dales of the north-east portion of the county. I have described the Dale Country in a companion volume to this, entitled 'Yorkshire Dales and Fells.' GORDON HOME. EPSOM, 1907.

The Yorkshire Matterhorn
Viewpoint The Yorkshire Matterhorn Time: 15 mins Region: Yorkshire and the Humber Landscape: rural Location: National Trust car park at Roseberry Topping, off A173, near Newton under Roseberry, Cleveland, North York Moors, TS9 6QS Grid reference: NZ 57000 12800 Driving through the gently rolling landscape on the edge of the North York Moors, you cannot fail to notice the craggy peak of Roseberry Topping standing proudly like a church spire amongst a cluster of cottage rooftops. The hill is known locally as ‘the Yorkshire Matterhorn’ because its shape reminds people of the pyramidal peak of that mighty mountain. Straddling the Swiss and Italian border, and standing 4478m tall, the Matterhorn is one of Europe’s highest mountains. What has produced Roseberry Topping’s distinctive shape and made visitors think of a mountain over 965 miles away? There are two reasons for the curious profile of Roseberry Topping. The first is down to geology, or the rocks that make up this area. Roseberry Topping is rather like a layer cake, with bands of different rocks sitting one on top of the other. The base is sandstone, next is a layer of ironstone, then mudstone, and it is topped off with a sandstone cap. The other hills in the area are also layered from these stones, but most do not have a sandstone cap. Over the years wind, rain and ice have battered the local hills, slowly breaking down the rocks and washing them away in a process called erosion. This has left the rounded moors we see today. Sandstone, however, is a harder rock than the others in the area, so the cap on Roseberry Topping acted like a shield and gave it more protection. -

Published Books on Great Ayton and Roseberry Topping Ian Pearce April 2012
Published books on Great Ayton and Roseberry Topping Ian Pearce April 2012 The obvious sources of information about Great Ayton are the classic authors such as Graves, Ord and Atkinson, and Dan O’Sullivan’s more recent and more comprehensive history of the village. However, there are many other published books on Cleveland which include references to Great Ayton. This article is intended to be a guide to these sources, some of which are difficult to find. Within each group books are listed by date of original publication. There is a summary of the information relevant to the village. Many of the books are available in the reference sections of local libraries; Northallerton and Middlesbrough can be recommended. Some of the older texts are available on the internet. Some books written by people living in the village, such as George Dixon’s natural history books, are included because of their close associations with the village. History of Great Ayton School Published for the Jubilee Committee, 1891 Extremely rare, copies likely to be several hundred pounds. The first fifty years of the Friends’ School, originally the North of England Agricultural School, largely written by George Dixon, the school’s first superintendent. The school was established to educate the children of Friends who had married out of the Society: boys were trained as agricultural workers, girls for domestic service. George Dixon was an obvious choice for the position of the first superintendent, having farming and teaching experience and a staunch Quaker. George describes his life before coming to Great Ayton, and how the family arrived at Philip Helseton’s house on High Green in 1841 to start the school. -
