Husthwaite is an ancient settlement, one of the oldest buildings being St. Nicholas’ Parish Church dating from the twelfth century, which, with the Village Green, forms the centre of the village.
The village is a Designated Conservation Area and partly lies within the Howardian Hills National Landscape (formerly AONB). It is also a gateway to the North York Moors National Park.
Our village is a thriving local community with a wide range of activities. Many of these take place in our local Village Hall which has become a focal point of entertainment ranging from dramatic productions and talks to Scottish country dancing which culminates in a Burns Night Celebration every year.
