About Battersby Rail Station

Battersby is a hamlet in North Yorkshire, England. It lies on the edge of the North York Moors National Park and within the historic boundaries of the North Riding of Yorkshire, 5 miles (8 km) east of Stokesley, and 1.5 miles (2.4 km) south-west of Kildale. The settlement is mentioned in the Domesday Book as being part of the hundred of Langbaurgh, and having one ploughland. The name is recorded in 1086 as Badresbi, and in the 14th century as Batheresby. The first part is an Old Norse name, and the by means farmstead. In the Late Middle Ages a watermill was employed on the local beck to grind corn.
