Ingleby Greenhow

Ingleby Greenhow is a village and civil parish in the county of North Yorkshire, England. It is on the border of the North York Moors and 3 miles (4.8 km) south of Great Ayton. From 1974 to 2023 it was part of the district of Hambleton, it is now administered by the unitary North Yorkshire Council. The parish of Ingleby Greenhow has records of a John Thomasson de Grenehow, a member of the clergy, who in 1376 "had to appear before a Commission appointed to be tried with several others for either poaching or cutting down timber, or destroying property belonging to Peter de Malo Luca the 6th, of Mulgrave Castle". The name may derive from the Saxon for Englishman's green hill. How, derived from the Old Norse word haugr, means hill or mound. Ingleby Manor was bought by a Scottish courtier David Foulis in 1608. St Andrew's Church, Ingleby Greenhow, was almost entirely rebuilt in 1741, but has a Norman chancel arch inside. In 1931, British altitude and distance records for gliders were established over the moors near here, as recounted by the novelist, pilot, and aeronautical engineer Nevil Shute in his memoir, Slide Rule. The glider, a Tern produced by Shute's company, Airspeed Ltd. was flown by a skilled German sailplane pilot, Carl Magersuppe, who had been hired by Airspeed.
