POCKLINGTON,

WITH THE VILLAGES OF BISHOP WILTON, HAYTON AND NEIGHBOURHOODS.

POCKLINGTON is a small market-town and town­ship, in the parish of its name, and in the Wilton-Beacon divison of the wapentake of Harthill, East Riding, 195 miles from London, 26 n. w. from Hull 17 n.e. from Driffield. 13 e. from York, and seven n.w. from Market Weighton ; situate on a small stream falling into the river Derwent, and within a mile of a canal, communicating with that river; which furnishes the means of supplying the town and neighbourhood with coal, lime, manure and various merchandise, and of conveying to different places corn, flour, tim­ber and other articles. The inhabitants here ' are chiefly concerned in agriculture, from which, together with the market and fairs, they draw their principal subsistence.   The country around is tolerably fertile, flat in Ihe immediate vicinity of the town, but hilly at the distance of a few miles, affording pleasing scenery. Hubert Denison, Esq. of Kilnwick Percy (a handsome seat in this neighbourhood), is lord of the manor, and holds a court leet once a year. Pocklinelon is one of the stations, named in the new Boundary Act, for receiving votes at the election of members for the East Riding of the county.
The places of worship are, the parish church, and a chapel each for Independents, Wesleyan and Primitive Methodists, and Roman catholics. The church is a large plain building, dedicated to All Saints ; the living is a vicarage, in the patronage of the Dean of York, and incumbency of the Rev. C. Hawkins : the resident curate is the Rev. Thomas Brown. Here is a free school, liberally endowed by a landed revenue : the patronage of the mastership is in St. John's college, Cambridge, and the Rev. Thomas Shield, B. D. is the present master ; the number of scholars is unlimited : there is besides a national school. The market, which is well supplied with corn and other marketable com­modities, is held on Saturday ; the fairs are the 7th of March, 7th May. 6th August, and 8th November, for cattle ; the day after the last named fair is a hiring for servants ; and there are races on the second of May annually. The entire parish contained, in 1821, 2,163 inhabitants, and in 1831, 2,265, of which last number 2,048 were returned for the township.

Bishop Wilton with Belthorpe, is a township, in the parish of Bishop Wilton, four miles north of Pocklington, and 14 from York. The church, a very ancient building, is dedicated to St. Edith : the bene­fice is a vicarage, in the patronage of Sir Tatton Sykes, Bart, of Sledmere; the Rev. Joseph Shooter is the incumbent. The parish contained, at the last census (taken in 1831) 831 inhabitants, and the township 622 of that number.

Hayton is a village and township, in the parish of its name, 4½ miles from Maiket-Weighton, and 2½ from Pocklington. The church is dedicated to St. Martin: the living is a discharged vicarage, in the patronage of the Dean of York, and incumbency of the Rev. Charles Rees Graham.
