‘The Nest’ Ainthorpe

Another Esk Valley postcard  image; “The Nest”  (now demolished) was situated in Ainthorpe, slightly lower down the hill from the Fox and Hounds and on the opposite side of the road. It gets a mention in the first paragraph of an interesting account of life in times past called “An Ainthorpe Childhood” by J. P. Lynas which appears as a pdf file within the North Yorks Moors National Park website. The quickest and easiest way to get to it is to put the words ”Ainthorpe Childhood” into your search engine!
