More Information About Aysgarth
Aysgarth is a village and civil parish in Wensleydale, in the Richmondshire district of North Yorkshire, England. The village is in the Yorkshire Dales National Park, about sixteen miles south-west from Richmond. According to the 2001 UK census the parish had a population of 197 people in 88 households.[1] The George and Dragon Inn in Aysgarth dates from the 17th century[2] when it was a coaching inn and is now a Grade II listed building.[3] Local real ale from the Black Sheep Brewery and the Yorkshire Dales Brewing Company is served.[4] St. Andrew's Church in Aysgarth was substantially rebuilt in 1536,[5] and restored in 1866 is now a Grade II* listed building.[6] The unusually large churchyard extends to about four acres. The church preserves a number of fittings that were rescued from Jervaulx Abbey at the time of the Dissolution of the Monasteries, including a rood screen and the abbot's stall.[7] The village gives its name to the nearby Aysgarth Falls.
