Wold Newton, East Riding of Yorkshire

The children's author Christina Butler lived for many years in the western section of Wold Newton Hall.His team discovered that the monument had initially composed a large timber structure onto which several bodies had been laid along with pottery and flints.[10] In 2014 the metal detectorist David Blakely discovered a pottery container holding 1857 copper coins dating from the early 4th century AD.On 13 December 1795 a meteorite crashed on the outskirts of the village, landing within metres of ploughman John Shipley.The event inspired the development of the body of science fiction literature known as the Wold Newton family by American author Philip José Farmer.
