Northallerton Walk: Town Centre【4K】

Описание: Located in the county of North Yorkshire, and around 30 miles northwest of York, is the town of Northallerton.

In 1069 Northallerton was torched and laid waste by the forces of William the Conqueror during the 'Harrying of the North'. It hadn't recovered by the time of the Domesday Book of 1086 where it is described as 'a waste'. It later took the prefix of 'North' to distinguish it from Allerton-Mauleverer about 25 miles to the south.

In 1138 the Battle of the Standard took place between the kingdoms of England and Scotland on Cowton Moor near Northallerton. The Scots, under King David, were heavily defeated by the barons of Northern England.

A market charter was granted to Northallerton by King John in 1200. Being situated along the Great North Road running from London to Edinburgh from medieval times to the 20th century, Northallerton had a thriving coaching trade. Coaching inns would provide overnight rest for horses and their passengers in the era preceding the railways. There were four such coaching inns along the High Street.

In 1841 the railway arrived in Northallerton. Ever since, it has remained a significant stop along the East Coast Main Line between King's Cross in London and Edinburgh Waverley station, lying between York and Darlington.

To this day, Northallerton has remained a key market town in North Yorkshire, being home to the headquarters of North Yorkshire County Council and Hambleton District Council.
