History edit

The name "Ingerthorpe" means 'Ingrid's outlying farm/settlement'.[2] Earthworks that are purported to be Ingerthorpe medieval village are visible on historic air photos, however they have been listed as rejected or doubtful.[3] Ingerthorpe is not in the Domesday Book and wasn't mentioned before the late 12th century.[4] Ingerthorpe was formerly a township in the parish of Ripon,[5] from 1866 Ingerthorpe was a civil parish in its own right until it was abolished and merged with Markington with Wallerthwaite on 1 April 1937.[6]
