Hawsker is the name for the combined villages of High and Low Hawsker that straddle the A171 road {{convert|4|km|order=flip}} south east of Whitby, in North Yorkshire, England.

History

The name Hawsker derives from Old Norse and means Haukr's enclosure.[2] The settlement was listed in the Domesday Book as belonging to Earl Hugh in Nortreding.[3]

Hawsker was originally in the parish of Whitby,[4] but in 1878 it was split off into its own parish[5] (Hawsker-cum-Stainsacre)[6] along with neighbouring hamlet of Stainsacre where the parish church of All Saints is located.[7] the population of the parish is 790 and includes the hamlet of Stainsacre and the wider parish which amounts to over {{convert|4,000|acre}} in area.[1]

The two settlements of High and Low Hawsker are divided by the A171 road between Whitby and Scarborough; Low Hawsker lies to the west of the road and High Hawsker lies to the east.[8] Low Hawsker used to have a working windmill; this was built in 1861 by George Burnett and was known to be in use up until 1915. The upper storeys were removed in 1960, but the lower portion is still in the village.[9]

Between July 1885 and March 1965, Hawsker had a station on the Scarborough & Whitby Railway line.[10] The track was left in situ for potash traffic that never was realised,[11] however, a new potash mine at Sneatonthorpe (to the west)[12] is due to open for mining in 2021.[13] The trackbed is now a long distance path and cycleway, with the old station now housing a cycle hire business.[14]

There is a primary school in the village that caters for students from the Hawsker-cum-Stainsacre parish[15] and was rated as being 'Good' by Ofsted in 2013.[16] Caedmon College and Eskdale School, both in Whitby, provide secondary education for students from Hawsker and Stainsacre.[17]

An hourly bus service connects the village with Whitby, Robin Hood's Bay and Scarborough. This is increased to half-hourly through the summer daytimes.[18]
