North Yorkshire

Thirsk

With the gateway to the North York Moors National Park to the east and Yorkshire Dales National Park to the west, Thirsk is the epitome of a rural market town, its medieval cobbled market square, original frontage shops and historic coaching inns have an enduring charm that still enchant visitors today. It’s as timeless as the good old Yorkshire welcome that’s waiting to greet you.

As the birthplace of Thomas Lord, founder of Lord’s Cricket Ground, and spiritual home of author James Herriot, Thirsk is a Yorkshire legend. Today, the World of James Herriot museum is an award winning museum and visitor centre which attracts lovers of BBC’s All Creatures Great and Small from all around the world.
