Norton-on-Derwent

Norton-on-Derwent, commonly referred to as simply Norton, is a town and civil parish in North Yorkshire, England.Occupations included five farmers, one of whom was also a lime burner, two blacksmiths, four butchers, six grocers, five shoemakers, three tailors, two horse jockeys, a horse trainer, three raff merchants (dealers in lumber and odd refuse), two schoolmasters, a corn miller, saddler, stonemason, linen draper, cabinet maker, roper, gardener, fellmonger, wheelwright, overseer, and surgeon, and the landlords of The Bay Horse, and The Oak Tree public houses.Sport facilities include a swimming pool, a skate park, and Norton College sixth form gym that is open to the public.Because of the town's close proximity to Malton, Norton has access to the A64, which runs from Leeds and York to Scarborough, and the A169 to Pickering and Whitby.Malton railway station is on the TransPennine Express route, with fast trains every hour running from Scarborough to York, Leeds, Manchester and Liverpool.[20] Ryan Swain has been spearheading a global campaign called #rescuetheramp appealing to the towns councils to restore it.A blue plaque has also been put in place at a newly repaired skate park in honor of a "much loved" BMX rider from the area named Tom Warrington.
