All Saints Church, North Cave

Highlight • Religious Site

All Saints is a beautiful Grade I listed medieval church built and modified from the thirteenth century onwards, with a few remaining Norman features. Its chief glory is the magnificent East Window by Dr Douglas Strachan, who also designed much of the glass in the neighbouring church of St Oswald in Hotham. Useful village car park just south of the church next to a playground, ideal starting point for circular walks. historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1203419, northcave-pc.gov.uk/our-community/north-cave-church

Houghton Moor

Highlight • Forest

There are a few pleasant routes through this wood, some of the tracks are quite boggy due to ongoing forestry operations, however, it is very easy to circumvent these patches.

North Newbald Village Green

Highlight • Settlement

Archetypal English village with its large village green surrounded by pretty stone houses and two pubs. The open beck runs in front of the houses in Eastgate, each with their own private bridge. The banks of the stream are planted with flowers. A large flat circular stone on the green known as the whipping stone is probably the base of the old market cross but rumour has it that a man was whipped to death here in 1624. newbaldparishcouncil.gov.uk/about-newbald

St Nicholas' Church, North Newbald

Highlight • Religious Site

See newbaldparishcouncil.gov.uk/church or historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1346990
Built on a ridge and situated centrally, St Nicholas Church appears to dominate the skyline of the village. Described by Nikolaus Pevsner, one of our greatest historians of ancient buildings as, ‘the most complete Norman Church in the East Riding’ and often called ‘the Cathedral of the Wolds’, the church derives its name from the Greek, Saint Nikolaus of Myra (270-340 AD). He was also known as Nikolaus the Wonder-worker, famed for secret gift-giving, and became the model for Santa Claus, itself a corruption of Saint Nicholas. He became the Patron Saint of a rich array of professions and lost causes, including: Archers, Brewers, Pawnbrokers, the Clergy, Thieves, Prostitutes and Murderers.
