East Tanfield is a civil parish in the Hambleton district of North Yorkshire, England. There is no modern village in the parish, and the population was estimated at 30 in 2013.[1] The deserted medieval village of East Tanfield lies near Manor Farm on the banks of the River Ure.[2]
East Tanfield was mentioned in the Domesday Book, when it was in the possession of Count Alan of Brittany.[3] It was a prosperous community in the medieval period, but appears to have been deserted in the 16th century.[2]
East Tanfield was historically a township in the ancient parish of Kirklington in the North Riding of Yorkshire.[3] It became a separate civil parish in 1866.[4] It was transferred to North Yorkshire in 1974. The parish shares a grouped parish council, Tanfield Parish Council, with the much larger parish of West Tanfield.[5]
