It lies on the edge of the North York Moors National Park, and {{convert|6.2|mi}} north of Easingwold. HistoryThe village is mentioned in the Domesday Book as "Chileburne" in the Yalestre hundred. At the time of the Norman invasion the lord of the manor was Arnketil, but was subsequently granted to Hugh, son of Baldric. [2] During the reign of Henry I the manor was passed to Rouen Cathedral in Normandy and subsequently to Roger de Mowbray who passed the lands to the Colvilles. In return for receiving these lands, Thomas de Colville had to swear allegiance to Roger de Mowbray. [3] The Colvilles held the manor until 1405 when the eighth Thomas Colville was murdered outside York and died without male heirs. [4] The lands were held by the Archbishop of York after the dissolution of the monasteries in the 16th century.[5] Kilburn was historically a township and parish in the wapentake of Birdforth in the North Riding of Yorkshire.

The parish, which covered {{convert|5900|acre|km2|0}} acres, comprised Kilburn, Oldstead, Thorpe-le-Willows, and Wass, of which Kilburn had the largest population.[6] The etymology of the name comes form two Old English words, ciele & burna, meaning "cool stream".[5] Robert de Alneto, a monk from Whitby Abbey lived in a hermitage at Hood Grange, {{convert|2|mi|km|0}} from the village.

He manufactured furniture in English oak mainly for church use. His work is distinguished by a carving of a mouse somewhere on the piece. Examples can be seen on the wooden candlesticks in Westminster Abbey. These pieces were commissioned directly by the widow of the captain of HMS Barham as a memorial to the lost ship and her crew.[14]References1. ^{{NOMIS2011|id=1170216867|title=Kilburn High and Low Parish|accessdate=24 March 2018}} 2. ^{{OpenDomesday|OS=SE5179|name=kilburn|display=Kilburn|accessdate=30 December 2012}} 3. ^[https://www.amazon.co.uk/Yearsley-Genealogical-Story-Early-Years/dp/1521282757 Yearsley: A Genealogical Story Part 1: The Early Years] 4. ^[https://www.amazon.co.uk/Yearsley-Genealogical-Story-Early-Years/dp/1521282757 Yearsley: A Genealogical Story Part 1: The Early Years] 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.etymonline.com/|title=Etymology|accessdate=30 December 2012}} 6. ^1 {{Official website|http://www.ordnancesurvey.co.uk/oswebsite/opendata/viewer/|name=Ordnance Survey Open Viewer}} 7. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.kilburnpc.org.uk/|title=Parish Council|accessdate=30 December 2012}} 8. ^1 2 {{cite book |last=Lewis |first=Samuel|title=Kilburn (St. Mary)|url=http://www.british-history.ac.uk/report.aspx?compid=51074#s18 |work=A Topographical Dictionary of England |publisher=British History Online |pages=667–672|year=1848 |accessdate=7 March 2012}} 9. ^1 2 {{cite book|title=Bulmer's Topography, History and Directory (Private and Commercial) of North Yorkshire 1890 |page=726|year=1890 |publisher= S&N Publishing|isbn= 1-86150-299-0}} 10. ^{{cite web|url=http://neighbourhood.statistics.gov.uk/dissemination/LeadDatasetList.do?a=7&b=797725&c=kilburn+high+and+low&d=16&g=475759&i=1001x1003&m=0&r=1&s=1356868970179&enc=1&domainId=15|title=2001 UK Census|accessdate=30 December 2012}} 11. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/england/north+yorkshire/kilburn+high+and+low|title=Listed Buildings|accessdate=30 December 2012}} 12. ^Photo and brief details 13. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/en-332878-church-of-st-mary-kilburn-high-and-low-n|title="Church of St Mary, Kilburn High and Low"|accessdate=30 December 2012}} 14. ^{{cite web|last1=Thompson Cartwright|first1=Ian|title=Newsltter No 10|url=http://www.ionriver.co.uk/robertthompsons-co-uk/_img/newsletters/Summer_2014_10.pdf|website=Ion River|publisher=Ian Thompson Cartwright|accessdate=3 December 2015|page=4|date=2014}} External links{{Commons category-inline|Kilburn, North Yorkshire|Kilburn}} 2 : Villages in North Yorkshire|Hambleton District |
