Really picturesque village, grab a coffee at South Cave serviced

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.

See https://www.newbaldparishcouncil.gov.uk/church/ or https://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.

In spring a visual feast of marsh flowers can be enjoyed at this spring-fed Yorkshire Wolds nature reserve, whilst later in summer marsh orchids abound. North Newbald Becksies is fed by several clear chalk springs which are almost never known to dry up. https://www.ywt.org.uk/nature-reserves/north-newbald-becksies-nature-reserve

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. https://www.newbaldparishcouncil.gov.uk/about-newbald/

Couldn't quite see the natural spring water source, but this highlight lies on a great route from North Newbald to Market Weighton, especially after you cross Arras Hill / York Road heading north, there are some fantastic panoramic views.

Wide bridleway on farm access track
