The History of Bishopthorpe
Images: Roger Poyser To look into the history of Bishopthorpe, you have to start in a different place. Mentioned in the Domesday Book was the village of Badetorps, a small hamlet of houses and farms situated between the River Ouse and Ermine Street, the main Roman road into York. This humble collection of buildings would one day become our Bishopthorpe, but it first required a few new owners. Following the Norman Conquest, when the entire country was split up and given to different lords and religious houses, this particular spot of land fell into the hands of the monks of St Andrew’s, a priory which once dominated Fishergate. When they got there, and started construction on the village's first church, the place had already undergone a postNorman name change to the rather fancy Thorp-super-Usam; literally 'Thorp above the Ouse'. The monks seemed not too keen on this name, as from 1202 they changed it to Thorpe St Andrew. But even that name wasn't to last. In 1226 the Archbishop of York, Walter de Grey (you can see his tomb in the South Transept of York Minster),
10
bought the village's manor house, which had previously been owned by the influential abbot of Kirkstall Abbey. By the 1240s, much of the old house had been replaced by an impressive new manor, right on the banks of the Ouse. This was the beginnings of the palace that continues to dominate the village today, and Walter wisely donated it to the Dean and Chapter of York, so future Archbishops would always have a place to live – one the monarch couldn't pinch. This association with the Archbishop and York Minster quickly had an effect on the village, and by 1275 it was renamed Bishopthorpe (or 'Biscupthorpe' as it was first recorded). From this point on the village became very much about its most notable resident, growing larger and more prosperous by association. The most notable points in Bishopthorpe's history from then on revolved around Bishopthorpe Palace. Successive Archbishops added to the building, such as in 1480, when Archbishop Rotherham added the north wing, and again in 1761, when Archbishop Drummond employed
architect John Carr to 'spruce up' his new gaff a bit, adding the Gothic stable and gatehouse – through which visitors still pass today. But due to the proximity of the Archbishop's house, and because that position has always been deeply embedded in the establishment of England, Bishopthorpe has attracted its fair share of historical drama. The village was the site of a great truce in 1323 agreed between Edward II and Robert the Bruce, after the Scottish army had invaded Yorkshire and was threatening York. In 1405, Archbishop Scrope was accused of being a traitor to Henry VI and promptly had his head chopped off nearby. Also, in 1832, angry mobs from York tried to invade the palace after Archbishop Harcourt offered no support following the announcement of the Reform Bill. And you thought that time you dropped your pint at The Marcia Inn was dramatic! Today, Bishopthorpe may seem like a peaceful riverside village, but behind its quiet streets lies centuries of history.

WALKING WITH
THE WANDERER
Time: 21/4 hours
Distance: 5 miles
ASKHAM RICHARD AND BILBROUGH
Starting from the green at Askham Richard with its duck pond, this walk uses lanes and tracks to reach Bilbrough. The later stretches offer striking views across the fields to the distant Minster, and it would be possible to divide this walk into two separate walks by turning left at Direction Point 3 (if starting from Askham Richard) or by turning right at Point 6 (if starting from Bilbrough). Although this is a short walk, there are a few minor challenges, for example, some paths are unsigned and there are a number of stiles and a couple of short climbs. Cattle may be grazing in the field beyond the avenue in Direction Point 2. The recommended start point is Askham Richard, near the Rose and Crown pub where there is roadside parking.
1. With the Rose and Crown pub behind you, go right on the road. Bend left at the end of the pond and leave the main road to the left on Mill Lane. Follow this hedged lane, which carries virtually no traffic, for about 600 metres until it bends left to a road at the end of a small copse. 2. Turn right and follow for about 350 metres, ignore a right turn after about 300 but 50 metres beyond this, turn left on an unsigned road. Continue, passing The Normans weddings venue. About 200 metres after this, where the road bends right, go left into a field (currently protected by a low log barrier) on an unsigned footpath. Head towards trees and pick up a narrow earth path running between them. Walk through the tree avenue, keeping left as it reaches its end at a low stile. Climb over the stile, then turn halfway to the left towards the right of a solitary tree until you reach the crest of a hilltop. Continue along the grass following a faint path towards a gate that is to the right of a short wall. Continue through the gate on an enclosed track to a road. 3. Turn right downhill. Stay on the quiet road, ignoring a right turn, until you see a house on the right. Go through the double metal gates opposite the house to follow an unsigned grassy bridleway that is running between the hedges. Remain on this path, which eventually opens out on the right, until you reach a T-junction with a crossing track. Turn left and follow this for about 400 metres to reach a pond, houses and barns, and the A64 dual carriageway. 4. Turn left on the footpath/cycle track (if using the Coastliner buses the return stop to York is here). Continue past the services complex. 5. About 150 metres beyond this, look out for a hard-to-spot unsigned stile in the hedge on the left (it’s directly opposite a ‘H’ hydrant sign
on the other side of the dual carriageway). Go over the stile and walk ahead with a hedge to your left, soon climbing a short slope. At the top of the field turn right and follow the wood edge to the left around a corner by a telegraph pole. Continue through a redundant barrier/ stile but 30 metres beyond this, go left through a gap. Next follow the obvious path over some rough grass, then head into trees. Squeeze through a gap in the churchyard walls to cross the yard and reach Bilbrough’s main street. 6. Turn right down the street. At the end turn left. Where the road straightens after a right bend take the signed bridleway on your left to continue between hedges until you reach an open area with a seat. 7. Here you’ll turn right and pass to the right of a large tree. Continue along the left edge of fields going over two stiles. Just before a lone tree ahead of you, follow the path left as it goes down a few steps to drop into a lower field. Go ahead, with a hedge to your right, downhill along the field edge. Maintain the same direction in the next field with a hedge
still to your right until you reach a road. 8. Turn right on the road. In 250 metres turn left towards Askham Richard. Continue by the roadside trees to the village green and start-point.
