Kirby Hill is a small rural village and civil parish in the Harrogate district of North Yorkshire, England. It is approximately one mile north of the market town of Boroughbridge. Formerly known as Kirby-on-the-Moor, the village is surrounded by open countryside on 3 sides and affords long-range views towards the North Yorks Moors and the Yorkshire Dales. ==History== The village is mentioned twice in the ''Domesday Book'' as ''Chirchbi'' in the ''Hallikeld'' hundred. The lands were owned by ''Gospatric, son of Arnketil'' at the time of the Norman invasion. Afterwards the lands passed to the Crown, but he remained lord of the manor on behalf of the King. The manor passed at some point to the Mowbray family and thence part of it by sale, to the Prior of Newburgh Pirory. After the dissolution, the manor was granted to Nevill's of Thornton Bridge. The Nevill's sold the manor to Sir Robert Long in 1672. Eventually the manor was sold in the 19th century to the Rawson family of Nidd Hall.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Parish History )〕 The army of Sir Andreas de Harcla mustered his forces near the village prior to the Battle of Boroughbridge in 1322.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Local History of Battle )〕 (詳細はEast Coast Main Line near Easingwold to Knaresborough via Boroughbridge.
