The village was formerly owned by Wymar, who was the steward of the Earls of Richmond.[2] The village is very similar to the others that dot Wensleydale, but Thornton Steward has a reservoir owned by Yorkshire Water.[3] The village includes the ancient St Oswald's Church, which is reputedly the oldest church in Wensleydale[4] with some parts being dated back to the year 680.[5] The church was subject to Channel 4's show Time Team, where they found remains of a communion of monks. The village was also featured in the British television series All Creatures Great and Small, in the episode "If Wishes Were Horses". The hill, East Witton fell, is visible from Thornton Steward and on the western side Jervaulx Abbey is visible.[6] The school house was founded in 1815 by George Horn, with a budget of '£10 per annum',[7] but was closed during the 20th century. It is situated in between the towns of Leyburn and Bedale, and is near to several tourist attractions such as Thorp Perrow Arboretum and the Green Howards regimental exhibition.[8] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.neighbourhood.statistics.gov.uk/dissemination/LeadKeyFigures.do?a=7&b=11129592&c=thornton+steward&d=16&e=62&g=6454871&i=1001x1003x1032x1004&m=0&r=1&s=1454772269900&enc=1|title=Civil Parish population 2011|accessdate=6 February 2016|publisher=Office for National Statistics|work=Neighbourhood Statistics}} 2. ^{{cite book|last1=Watts|first1=Victor|title=The Cambridge dictionary of English place-names : based on the collections of the English Place-Name Society|date=2010|publisher=Cambridge University Press|location=Cambridge|isbn=9780521168557|pages=610–611}} 3. ^{{cite web|last1=Farmery|first1=Ian|last2=Hayton|first2=Mark|title=Thornton Steward WTW|url=http://www.waterprojectsonline.com/case_studies/2008/Yorkshire%20Thornton%20Steward%202008.pdf|website=waterprojectsonline.com|accessdate=8 March 2017|page=1|format=PDF}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.achurchnearyou.com/thornton-steward-st-oswald/|title=St Oswald's Church|work=A church near you|access-date=8 March 2017}} 5. ^{{cite web|title=Jervaulx Abbey to Thornton Steward|url=https://www.nidderdaleaonb.org.uk/ckfinder/userfiles/files/Walks/JervaulxAbbeyToThorntonSteward_web.pdf|website=niddrdaleaonb.org.uk|accessdate=8 March 2017|page=2|format=PDF}} 6. ^{{cite web|title=Thornton Steward Conservation area appraisal and management plan|url=http://www.richmondshire.gov.uk/images/files/planning/conservation-areas/thornton-steward-document.pdf|website=richmondshire.gov.uk|accessdate=20 October 2017|page=5|format=PDF|date=24 February 2009}} 7. ^{{Genuki|county=NRY|Thornton Steward}} 8. ^{{cite map|title =Northallerton & Ripon|map =98|year =2016|scale =1:50,000 |series =Landranger |publisher =Ordnance Survey|isbn =9780319261972}} External links{{Commons category-inline|Thornton Steward}}{{richmondshire-geo-stub}} 3 : Villages in North Yorkshire|Civil parishes in North Yorkshire|Wensleydale |
