Environs
Nun Monkton, with its maypole, duck pond and primary school, seems to embody all that is expected of the traditional English village.

This peaceful setting exists midway between York and Harrogate (off the A59), with easy access to both city and towns, as well as to Leeds a little way down the nearby A1.
