Thornton-le-Street – The Archaeology and History in its Landscape

Join us on a journey into the past. Discover the story of a village and its people from the time of our earliest ancestors, through its medieval heyday and onto its place in the modern landscape of North Yorkshire. Roads to the Past was a community archaeology and history project led by the Thornton-le-Street History Group and funded by a grant from the National Lottery Heritage Fund. Between 2017 and 2019 a large group of dedicated volunteers and residents ventured into their village’s past. This is the story they uncovered.
