Thorganby, North Yorkshire

Thorganby is a small village and civil parish in North Yorkshire, England.The village is mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086 as Torgrembi, and was listed as belonging to Ralph Paynel, the lord in chief of the area.[3] Thorganby derives from a personal name Thorgrim and the Old Norse bȳ, meaning farmstead or village.[5] However, the present structure, St Helen's Church, which is a grade I listed building, dates from the 15th century.[13] However, in 1913, Thorganby gained its own station on the newly opened Derwent Valley Light Railway, which provided a link between York and Selby.
