GeographyLeeming lies a mile east of the current A1(M) road, south of the larger village of Leeming Bar and north of the small hamlet of Londonderry. Nearby is the RAF base of RAF Leeming. Before the opening of the {{convert|3|mi|adj=on}} £1 million bypass in October 1961,[2] the A1 passed through the village following the path of Dere Street, parallel and close to the main of the airfield.[3] HistoryThe name derives from the river-name, which turned settlement-name. The etymology may be linked with British *lemanio "elm-tree", but there are other possibilities. An archaeological survey undertaken on Kelsall Villa (a Roman site near to Leeming Bar) describes it as deriving from the river with Leming meaning bright stream.[4] In April 2008, the nearby base's remaining Tornado F3 squadron (25 Sqn) was disbanded. The base has been redeveloped as a communications station with the formation of No. 90 Signals Unit, the first elements of which began arriving in 2006.[5] Two flying squadrons remain at the base, No. 100 Squadron RAF and the Northumbria University Air Squadron.[6] The village churchyard is the burial place of Flt Lt John Quinton GC DFC, who sacrificed himself to save an air cadet by providing the cadet with the only available parachute after a mid-air collision.[7] GovernanceAn electoral ward in the same name exists. This ward stretches south to Carthorpe with a total population of 3,500.[8] Biogas plantIn July 2016, an £18 million biogas plant was opened at the southern end of the village adjacent to RAF Leeming. The Clapham Lodge facility[9] takes in {{convert|80,000|tonne}} of food waste annually from local farms and food manufacturers and produces biogas (biomethane) and fertiliser from its anaerobic digestion (AD) plant.The plant generates approximately {{convert|6,000,000|m3}} of biogas per year which is fed directly into the Northern Gas Network pipeline and is enough to power almost 4,000 homes.[10] The fertiliser is then sold off to local farms.[11][12] References1. ^{{NOMIS2011|id=1170216837|title=Exelby, Leeming and Newton Parish|accessdate=27 April 2018}} 2. ^{{cite news|last1=Lloyd|first1=Chris|title=It's a long way to Londonderry...|url=http://www.thenorthernecho.co.uk/history/13383194.It_s_a_long_way_to_Londonderry___/|accessdate=13 February 2017|work=The Northern Echo|date=10 July 2015|language=en}} 3. ^{{cite map|title =Bedale & Masham|map =SE28|year =1951 |url =http://maps.nls.uk/view/91788853|scale =1:25,000|publisher =Ordnance Survey }} 4. ^{{cite web|title=Kelsall Villa, Leeming Lane, Leeming Bar, North Yorkshire|url=http://archaeologydataservice.ac.uk/archiveDS/archiveDownload?t=arch-1642-1/dissemination/pdf/SNY11854.pdf|website=archaeologydataservice.ac.uk|accessdate=13 February 2017|page=5|language=en|format=PDF|date=April 2008}} 5. ^{{cite book|editor1-last=Dent|editor1-first=Stephen|title=The Royal Air Force handbook : the definitive guide by the MoD.|date=2005|publisher=Putnam Aeronautical|location=London|isbn=1857533844|page=138}} 6. ^{{cite web|url = http://www.bbc.co.uk/northyorkshire/content/articles/2008/04/03/tornado_video_feature.shtml|title = Tornados leave Leeming|work = BBC – North Yorkshire|publisher = BBC|accessdate = 13 February 2017}} 7. ^{{cite news|last1=Walker|first1=Andy|title=Air disaster will be commemorated|url=http://www.darlingtonandstocktontimes.co.uk/news/9188697.Air_disaster_will_be_commemorated/|accessdate=13 February 2017|work=Darlington and Stockton Times|date=11 August 2011}} 8. ^{{NOMIS2011|id=1237325069|title=Leeming 2011 Census Ward|accessdate=27 April 2018}} 9. ^{{cite web|title=European biomethane map 2018|url=http://european-biogas.eu/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/2018.01.09.GIE_BIO_2018_A0_1189x841_FULL_415_clean_final.pdf|website=european-biogas.eu|accessdate=26 April 2018|format=PDF}} 10. ^{{cite news|last1=Bridgen|first1=Mike|title=Digester will transform food waste into green energy gas|url=http://www.darlingtonandstocktontimes.co.uk/business/11619765.Digester_will_transform_food_waste_into_green_energy_gas/|accessdate=26 April 2018|work=Darlington and Stockton Times|date=21 November 2014|language=en}} 11. ^{{cite news|title=Leeming Biogas|url=https://www.veolia.co.uk/media/media/case-studies/leeming-biogas|accessdate=26 April 2018|work=Veolia UK|date=11 January 2018}} 12. ^{{cite journal|editor1-last=Gyekye|editor1-first=Liz|title=JFS and Iona open £18m AD plant in North Yorkshire|journal=Bioenergy Insight|date=July 2016|volume=7|issue=4|page=10|publisher=Woodcote Media|location=Morden, Surrey|issn=2046-2476}} External links{{Commons category|Leeming, North Yorkshire}}
