**************************************************
The population of this very extensive
parish is chiefly to be found in Teesdale and its two tributaries, Londale and
Balderdale.
Along the Tees, starting in the north and following the stream
in a south-easterly direction we come in succession to Holwick, Hungry, Unthank,
Crossthwaite, Lonton, Mickleton, Romaldkirk, Hundethwaite, Cotherstone and
Lartington, the last five being considerable villages. The parish church stands
725 feet above the sea.
Londale lies between Mickle Fell (2591 feet) and
Lane Moor on the north and Hunderthwaite Moor (1857 feet) on the south. In it
are Close House, Grain O’ th’ Beck, Scar House, Blake House, Rigg House,
Corrbush, Hargill House, Stackholme, Wemmergill, Soulgill, Turner Holme, Bink
House, Kelton, Wythben Hill, Grassholme, Rigg, Saddlebow, Thringarth, West Park,
Greengates, Code House, Bowbank. Lonton and Mickleton are at the meeting of
the dales. At Laithkirk, between Bowbank and Lonton, is an ancient chapel which
has a register, part of which is preserved.
Balderdale (Bausderdale) is
bounded by Hundersthwaite Moor on the north and Cotherstone Moor (1489 feet) on
the south. In this dale are to be found Birkhat, Hagworm Hall, New Houses,
Pitcher House, Hury, Thurngarth, Loupes, East and West, Briscoe and West Park.
Cotherstone is at the north of the Balder,
Hundersthwaite a little to the
north-west near where the Wilden Beck flows off the
moor.
