Welcome to Lastingham

Lastingham is a small village located in the Ryedale district of North Yorkshire, England. It is situated on the southern edge of the North York Moors National Park and is known for its historic church and abbey ruins. The village is surrounded by beautiful countryside and is a popular destination for walkers and hikers.

The village of Lastingham has a rich history dating back to the 7th century when it was founded as a monastery by St. Cedd. The monastery was destroyed by the Vikings in the 9th century, but the church of St. Mary and St. Cedd was built on the site in the 11th century. The church is a beautiful example of Norman architecture and is known for its unique crypt, which is one of the oldest surviving examples of Anglo-Saxon architecture in England.

In addition to its historic church, Lastingham is also home to the ruins of a Benedictine abbey, which was founded in the 11th century. The abbey was dissolved in the 16th century during the English Reformation, but the ruins are still an impressive sight and are a popular attraction for visitors to the village. Overall, Lastingham is a charming and historic village that is well worth a visit for anyone interested in English history and architecture.
