It is situated between Driffield and Bridlington approximately {{Convert|6|mi|km}} to the west of Bridlington, and lies on the B1253 road. The Gypsey Race (an intermittent stream) runs through the village, which lies in the Great Wold Valley. There are a number of Neolithic sites associated with the stream and its valley. It is the current Seat of the Clan Macdonald of Sleat.{{citation needed|date=May 2015}} According to the 2011 UK census, Rudston parish had a population of 409,[1] an increase on the 2001 UK census figure of 390.[2] HistoryThe place-name 'Rudston' is first attested in the Domesday Book of 1086, and means 'rood' or 'cross' stone, referring to the monolith.[3] However, the name 'rud' derives from Old Norse ruð, meaning a clearing or pasture. So the place name could be stone in the clearing, Ruðstane. Nearby Howes of Duggleby and Ba'l (In Ugaritic mythology Baal is the lord of the storm; he bears a mace where Thor will grasp a hammer) also indicate Norse Viking place names rather than Anglo-Saxon origins. Ancient remainsThe Rudston Monolith stands in the parish churchyard. At over {{convert|25|ft|m}} tall, it is the tallest standing stone in England, and gave the village its name; it is Grade I listed.[4][5] Rudston is the centre of an unparalleled grouping of four Neolithic cursus monuments: cursus A,[6] cursus B,[7] cursus C[8] and cursus D.[9] At least one end of each cursus rests on an elevated chalk ridge on the sides of the Great Wold Valley. Cursuses A and C cross the Gypsey Race, whilst the other ends of cursuses B and D probably lie under the village. Rudston Roman villa, noted for its mosaics, was first excavated in 1839. It was subsequently re-excavated in the 1930s, 1960s and 1970s.[10][11] The mosaics are now in the Hull and East Riding Museum.[12] Parish churchRudston Grade I listed Anglican parish church is dedicated to All Saints.[13] Of 14th-century origin, it was restored in 1861 by George Fowler Jones.[14] It contains the gigantic organ, originally of four manuals, given by Sir Alexander McDonald of the Isles. Now a 3 manual instrument, it stands at the west end of the church in the original case.{{citation needed|date=April 2012}} The author Winifred Holtby was born in Rudston and is buried in the church graveyard.[15] Since September 2014, the North Aisle of the church has a small heritage area including a 3D map of the village with sites of interest noted and a set of information boards about the history of the village.[16] Thorpe Hall to the east of the village was designated a Grade II* listed building in 1952 and is now recorded in the National Heritage List for England, maintained by Historic England.[17] {{clear left}}References1. ^1 {{NOMIS2011 | id = 1170211250 | title = Rudston Parish | accessdate = 24 February 2018}} {{Refbegin}}2. ^{{cite web |url = http://neighbourhood.statistics.gov.uk/dissemination/LeadTableView.do?a=3&b=791028&c=Rudston&d=16&e=15&g=390789&i=1001x1003x1004&m=0&r=1&s=1211237989156&enc=1&dsFamilyId=779 |title = 2001 Census: Key Statistics: Parish Headcounts: Area: Rudston CP (Parish) |accessdate = 19 May 2008 |work = Neighbourhood Statistics |publisher = Office for National Statistics}} 3. ^{{cite book|authorlink = Eilert Ekwall|first = Eilert |last = Ekwall |title = Concise Oxford Dictionary of English Place-names|page = 395}} 4. ^{{PastScape|mnumber=79482|mname=Rudston Mnolith |accessdate=28 April 2013}} 5. ^{{NHLE|num=1083402 |desc=Monolith approximately 7 Metres North of Church of All Saints, Rudston|accessdate=16 April 2012}} 6. ^{{PastScape|mnumber=79500|mname=Rudston Cursus A |accessdate=28 April 2013}} 7. ^{{PastScape|mnumber=1036040|mname=Rudston Cursus B |accessdate=28 April 2013}} 8. ^{{PastScape|mnumber=1036047|mname=Rudston Cursus C |accessdate=28 April 2013}} 9. ^{{PastScape|mnumber=1036049|mname=Rudston Cursus D |accessdate=28 April 2013}} 10. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.bbc.co.uk/ahistoryoftheworld/objects/-BqphI9eSU2nbLVa63HSEw |title=Rudston Charioteer Mosaic|publisher=BBC|work=A History of the World|accessdate= 16 April 2012}} 11. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.roman-britain.org/places/rudston.htm |title=Roman Villa, Rudston, East Yorkshire|work= Roman-Britain.org|accessdate= 16 April 2012}} 12. ^{{cite book|title=Roman Mosaics at Hull|last=Smith|first=David|date=2005|isbn=0904490 34 3|pages=9ff}} 13. ^{{NHLE|num=1162387 |desc=Church of All Saints|accessdate=16 April 2012}} 14. ^{{cite book|authorlink=Nikolaus Pevsner|last=Pevsner|first= Nikolaus|title=The Buildings of England.
