This medieval village is
unusual in having one of the few surviving
commons. The street verges form part of it and
sheep roam freely here. Christ Church is
distinctively French-Gothic and was described
by Sir John Betjeman as “a little gem among
moorland churches”. Appleton le Moors, Hutton
le Hole, Spaunton, Lastingham and Rosedale are
all part of the Manor of Spaunton, which has
existed since the Norman Conquest. |
