Close to Reeth and Fremington, it lies {{convert|15|km|0|order=flip}} west of Richmond on the B6270 road.[2][3] On 5 July 2014, the Tour de France Stage 1 from Leeds to Harrogate passed through the village.[4] St Andrew's churchOften called "The Cathedral of the Dales", Grinton church is dedicated to St Andrew and was for centuries the main church for the whole of upper Swaledale, with many burials coming from miles away.[5] The bodies were carried as much as 16 miles down the valley along the footpath from Keld, now known as the Corpse Way or corpse road, in wicker coffins. Several long stones, located at intervals along the path, traditionally called "coffin stones", are said to be where the coffin would have been set down while the pallbearers rested.[6] Fragments of the old Norman church remain, including the font and the tower arch, which dates from the late 12th century.[7] Other parts of the building date from the late 13th or early 14th century, and the pulpit is Jacobean, but St Andrew's is now mainly a 15th-century rebuild. The church is often used as a venue for concerts during the Swaledale Festival and at other times.[8] It was featured in the British television series All Creatures Great and Small, in the episode "Brotherly Love".[9] Other notable featuresThe stone bridge across the River Swale was widened in the 18th century. The river is reputedly the fastest-flowing in England, and Grinton is the first point above Richmond where it could normally be forded.[10] Blackburn Hall, between the churchyard and the river, dates from 1635.[7] The Bridge Inn is popular with walkers and is a venue for weekly folk music sessions, normally held on Thursday evenings.[8] Above the village, on the Leyburn road is YHA Grinton Lodge, a former shooting lodge which is now a youth hostel.[11] References1. ^{{NOMIS2011|id=1170217151|title=Grinton Parish|accessdate=17 March 2018}} 2. ^{{cite map|title =Yorkshire Dales - Northern & Central Area |map =OL30 |year =2016 |scale =1;25,000 |series =Explorer |publisher =Ordnance Survey |isbn =9780319263358 }} 3. ^{{cite map|title =Darlington & Richmond |map =304 |year =2015 |scale =1;25,000 |series =Explorer |publisher =Ordnance Survey |isbn =9780319245569}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.letour.com/le-tour/2014/us/stage-1.html|title=Tour de France Stage 1|accessdate=15 July 2014}} 5. ^Gunnerside archives website, accessed 2008-11-14 6. ^The Corpse Way leaflet {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060823033651/http://www.lhi.org.uk/docs/yh00474_leaflet.pdf |date=23 August 2006 }} 7. ^1 Pevsner, Nikolaus, The Buildings of England – Yorkshire: The North Riding, Penguin (1978 edition) pp175–176 {{ISBN|0-14-071029-9}} 8. ^1 Swaledale Festival website, accessed 2008-11-14 9. ^"St Andrew’s Church, Grinton, N Yorks, UK – All Creatures Great & Small, Brotherly Love (1990)" - Waymarking.com 10. ^2 Dales website, accessed 2008-11-14 11. ^{{cite web |title= YHA Grinton Lodge|url= http://www.yha.org.uk/find-accommodation/yorkshire-dales-south-pennines/hostels/grinton-lodge/index.aspx |publisher= YHA |year=2009 |accessdate=20 May 2009 }} External links{{Commons category|Grinton}}
