Something of a showpiece
village, Hutton-le-Hole provides the rural
setting for the Ryedale Folk Museum, a
remarkable exhibition of rescued and
reconstructed period buildings including a
photographer’s studio, a cruck-framed house
and a row of shops.
Surrounded by moors, this
picturesque location is blessed with pretty
stone cottages, glistening streams and a
series of intriguing bridges.
The oldest building here
is Quaker Cottage, which dates from 1695 and
is associated with John Richardson, a
missionary to America who befriended William
Penn, the founder of Pennsylvania. |
