Burdale, North Yorkshire

Burdale is a hamlet in North Yorkshire, England, 8 miles (13 km) south-east of Malton.[1] In the 14th century Burdale appears to have been of a reasonable size, significantly larger than its more famous neighbour, Wharram Percy.Between 1925 and 1955 a large chalk quarry operated at Burdale, and supplied much of the traffic for the railway.[3] Burdale was part of the ancient parish of Wharram Percy in the East Riding of Yorkshire.Ryedale was abolished in 2023 and the hamlet is now part of the area administered by North Yorkshire Council.
