Lying on the River Derwent,
this is an important market town near
Pickering and was known as Deventio in Roman
times. The present Malton dates mainly from
the 18th century when it prospered as a river
port. Old Malton is nearby. North lies the
former prisoner-of-war site Eden Camp, which
has been transformed into a museum of everyday
life in World War Two. |
