Background
History
The name Ugthorpe derives from the Old Norse Uggiþorp meaning 'Uggi's secondary settlement'. Ugthorpe was an ancient demesne of the Crown, and is styled in the Domesday Book as Ughetorp. The Mauleys became lords here at an early period, and from them the manor and estate descended by marriage to the Bigods, and afterwards to the Ratcliffes, by whom the whole estate was sold in parcels. The village is situated in the western part of the parish, north of the road between Whitby and Guisborough.
