Lindrick  West Riding

 

In 1870-72, John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales described Lindrick like this:

LINDRICK, a township in Ripon parish, W. R. Yorkshire; contiguous to Studley Park, 2¾ miles W by S of Ripon. Acres, 820. Pop., 17. The name Lindrick was formerly written Linerigg; and is thought to designate a ridge of land running through the township, and popularly called Roman-Rigg. A massive ancient gold ring was found, near this ridge, about 1820; and con siderable traces of an ancient village are in a field called Yattsgarth.
