This is undoubtedly one of
the prettiest villages in the region and it
was where the great explorer Captain James
Cook was taught at Postgate School. The school
is now a museum dedicated to the great man and
his remarkable voyages. A 50ft monument to
Cook stands proudly on nearby Easby Moor. Two
miles away, at Newton, is a footpath that
takes the visitor to the distinctive 1,000ft
landmark of Roseberry Topping. |
