The Manor House, Marton-le-Moor

Marton-le-Moor is a village and civil parish in the Harrogate district of North Yorkshire, England. It is very near the A1(M) motorway, 4 miles (6.4 km) east of Ripon and 3 miles (4.8 km) west of Boroughbridge.[2] The name of the village derives from a mixture of Latin, Old English and Old Norse; Marr tūn super mōr, which means marsh farm (or settlement) on the moor.[3]

According to the 2001 UK census, Marton-le-Moor parish had a population of 174,[4] increasing to 182 in the 2011 Census.[1] In 2015, North Yorkshire County Council estimated the population of the village to be 190.[5]

Village affairs are conducted by the Parish Council.[6] Social functions are held regularly and organised by the Village Meeting Room committee which converted the Blacksmith shop to be used as a local community hall.

The grade II listed St Mary's church, which was built in 1830, is now no longer in regular use for worship, having been declared redundant in 2004.[7][8][9] During 2009, it was offered for sale without any mains electric or water connection, and a promise made by the buyer "not to disturb any human remains in the grounds".[10] The Parish Council is going to turn the unused part of St Mary's churchyard into a community garden to benefit all sectors of the community, especially older people and mothers with toddlers.[6]
