Catterick, North Yorkshire
Catterick is a village , civil parish and electoral ward in the Richmondshire district of North Yorkshire, England. It is north-west of the county town of Northallerton just to the west of the River Swale. It lends its name to nearby Catterick Garrison and the nearby hamlet of Catterick Bridge, the home of Catterick Bridge Racecourse where the village Sunday market is held. It lies on the route of the old Roman Road of Dere Street and was home to a small Roman fortification.
==Toponymy==
The etymology of the name is derived from the Latin place name, "Cataractonium" looks like a Latin/Greek mixture meaning "place of a waterfall", but it might have been a Roman misunderstanding of the Celtic name ''Catu-rātis'' meaning "battle ramparts", as partly supported by the spelling Κατουρακτονιον on the Ptolemy world map.〔Rivet & Smith, ( Ed. 1979–1982), Place-Names of Roman Britain〕
