Downholme
Downholme is a village and civil parish in the Richmondshire district of North Yorkshire, England. It is situated approximately west from the market town of Richmond and west from the county town of Northallerton. The village lies close to the edge of the Yorkshire Dales.
==History==
The village is mentioned in the ''Domesday Book'' as "Dune" with the manor belonging to Count Alan of Brittany. The lordship of the manor was granted by the Count to ''Gospatric, son of Arnketil'' around the time of the Norman Conquest. There were two ploughlands with a taxable value of 3 geld units. The manor came into the possession of Thomas de Richeburg before passing to the Leyburn family around 1184. Over the following years they granted the manor piecemeal to the abbey of St Agatha at Easby. The abbey then granted the manor lands to the Cleasby family by the middle of the 13th century. Around 1314, the Cleasby's passed the manor on to the Scrope family of Castle Bolton.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=History )〕
The etymology of the name is derived from the Old English word ''dūn'' meaning ''hill''. As can be seen from the ''Domesday Book'' entry, the suffix of ''-holme'', Old English ''holegn'' for ''holly'', was added a later date.
