Uckerby is a hamlet and civil parish in the Richmondshire district of North Yorkshire, England. It situated at a crossroads on the road between Scorton and Moulton. The hamlet lies north west of the county town of Northallerton. ==History== Uckerby first appears on record as ''Ukerby'', in 1198. The place name is derived from two Old Norse elements: the first is thought to be an unattested Old Norse personal name, either '' *Úkyrri'' or '' *Útkári''; the second element is ''býr'', meaning farmstead.〔 which cited: 〕 The hamlet was once part of the parish of Catterick, but was included in the Bolton-on-Swale parish in the late nineteenth century. In the 13th century the land was held as part of the FitzAlan fee of the manor of Catterick, with the tenants having the same name as the hamlet. The manor had passed to Andrew de Harcla, Earl of Carlisle by the start of the next century, but had to be forfeited when he was defeated in the rebellion against Edward II. The manor then became the possession of the Scrope family of Bolton and followed the descent of the manor of Ellerton-on-Swale until its sale around 1734 to Henry Foster. It was briefly held by James Riddell and his son from 1777 to around 1872 before being bought once again by the lord of the manor of Ellerton-on-Swale.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=History )〕 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「Uckerby」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
