Long Riston is a village in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England, in an area known as Holderness. It is situated approximately north of Hull city centre and east of Beverley town centre. It lies to the east of the A165 road which by-passes the village. Long Riston, with the hamlet of Arnold, forms the civil parish of Riston. The church dedicated to St Margaret was designated a Grade II * listed building in 1966 and is now recorded in the National Heritage List for England, maintained by Historic England. The village is a commuter settlement for those working in Hull and Beverley. The village has one public house, The Travellers Rest. In 1823 Long Riston was a civil parish in the Wapentake and Liberty of Holderness. Population at the time was 361. Occupations included eight farmers, two blacksmiths, three grocers, two shoemakers, two tailors, two wheelwrights, a butcher, a bricklayer, a hawker, and the landlord of The Traveller public house. Two carriers operated between the village and Hull, and Beverley, twice weekly. In 1872 land adjacent to Main Street was given for the establishment of a school. The school was completed in March 1873. Until the late 1950s it was known as Long Riston School and served both Long Riston and the hamlet of Arnold. Subsequently it became known as Riston C E Primary School. The school is a voluntary controlled church school in the diocese of York. ==References== * * 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Long Riston」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
