Pictures of Tollerton

Welcome to our website

Tollerton is situated in the Vale of York. 10 miles North of York and 5 miles South of Easingwold. It is a rural Village with approximately 400 houses and a population approaching 1000. There is St Michael's Church, a Village Store/Post Office, a joiners shop, carpenters, plumbers and electricians. There is also a caravan park, boarding kennels and two public houses, one boasting a Chinese Restaurant, all within the Village.
Central to the Village is the Green which hosts a fair each year in August. In 1256 King Henry II granted the Treasurer of York, and his successors the charter to hold weekly markets and an annual fair. Although the markets have fallen by the wayside (except during the fundraising for the Millennium) the Annual Fair still continues and runs with the Annual Horticultural Show.

We hope you find this an informative site about the Activities within Tollerton. We have tried to include as many things as possible but if we miss you out please let us know.

We often have letters from people trying to trace relatives in Tollerton and we will post these in the Village News section.

Our facilities include the Village Hall, Church and Church Hall, and Sports and recreation field. It has numerous active sports and recreation groups including Tennis, Badminton, and Short Mat Bowls to name a few. There is also a monthly disco for the younger children of the village on the 4th Friday of every month during term time. There is a very successful Pre-school Playgroup that runs sessions each day in the Village Hall.
