There were formerly two shops and a post office on Main Street, now private residences.[3] There are three 17th to 19th century stone Grade II listed building houses near the junction of Main Street and Church Street: Laurel Farm,[6] Barkston House,[7] and Turpin Hall Farm.[8] References1. ^{{NOMIS2011|id=1170217377|title=Barkston Ash Parish |accessdate=10 March 2018}} 2. ^1 {{cite web |url=https://ukga.org/lewis_eng/B/897.html |title=Barkston |last=Lewis |first=Samuel |date= |website=ukga.org |publisher=UK Genealogy Archives |access-date=12 July 2018 |quote=Transcribed from A Topographical Dictionary of England, by Samuel Lewis, 7th edition, published in 1848.}} 3. ^1 2 3 {{cite web |url=http://barkstonash.co.uk/index.php/about |title=About Barkston Ash |author= |date= |website=barkstonash.co.uk |publisher=Barkston Ash Parish Council |access-date=12 July 2018 |quote=}} 4. ^{{cite journal|last1=Langdale|first1=Thomas|title=A topographical dictionary of Yorkshire; containing the names of all the towns, villages, hamlets, gentlemen's seats, &c. in the county of York|date=1822|page=149|publisher=Langdale J|location=Northallerton|oclc=5211910}} 5. ^1 2 {{cite book |last=North Yorkshire Federation of Women's Institutes |first= |date=1991 |title=North Yorkshire Village Book |url= |location= |publisher=Countryside Books |page=26 |isbn=978-1853061370 |author-link= }} 6. ^{{NHLE| num =1148434| desc= Laurel Farm|accessdate = 12 July 2018}} 7. ^{{NHLE| num =1316334| desc= Barkston House|accessdate = 12 July 2018}} 8. ^{{NHLE| num =1148433| desc= Turpin Hall Farm|accessdate = 12 July 2018}} External links{{Commons category|Barkston Ash}}
