Huttons Ambo

[3][5] Hutton, the toponym, derives from the Old English hōh tūn, meaning settlement on or by the hill spur.[5] Archaeological excavations in the 1950s revealed evidence of 12th- or 13th-century fortified buildings at the south end of the village of Low Hutton near the river.[6] Huttons Ambo lends its name to a specific type of Medieval pottery produced here in the 13th century consisting of large, unglazed storage jars.[7] Further excavations carried out in 2023 and 2024 by Ethos Heritage CIC uncovered a 13th-century building that may be connected with a lost manor house mentioned in village records.In addition, the excavations also identified a large Late Medieval building in the southern end of the village which seems to have been occupied until the early 18th century.
