Places to see in ( Pickering - UK )
Pickering is an ancient market town and civil parish in the Ryedale district of North Yorkshire, England, on the border of the North York Moors National Park. Historically part of the North Riding of Yorkshire, Pickering sits at the foot of the moors, overlooking the Vale of Pickering to the south. According to legend the town was founded by King Peredurus around 270 BC; however, the town as it exists today is of medieval origin.
The tourist venues of Pickering Parish Church, with its medieval wall paintings, Pickering Castle, the North Yorkshire Moors Railway and Beck Isle Museum have made Pickering popular with visitors. Nearby places include Malton, Norton and Scarborough.
Pickering is situated at the junction of the A170, which links Scarborough with Thirsk, and the A169 linking Malton and Whitby. Located in the northern part of the UK, Pickering has a temperate maritime climate which is dominated by the passage of mid-latitude depressions.
The Beck Isle Museum is housed in a Regency period residence near the centre of town, adjacent to the Pickering Beck, a stream that flows under a four-arched road bridge. Dalby Forest is on the southern slopes of the North York Moors National Park. The southern part of the forest is divided by valleys creating a 'Rigg and Dale' landscape whilst to the north, the forest sits on the upland plateau.
North York Moors National Park Authority works to promote enjoyment and encourage understanding of the area by the public and balance it with conservation. The North Yorkshire Moors Railway is a heritage railway. The 18-mile (29 km) line is the second-longest heritage line in the United Kingdom and runs across the moors from Pickering via Levisham, Newton Dale and Goathland to Grosmont.
Pickering Castle is situated at the edge of the moors. It is a classic, well-preserved example of an early motte and bailey castle refortified in stone during the 13th and 14th centuries, centred upon a shell keep crowning an impressive motte. There is an exhibition in the chapel. Pickering Church has a Saxon foundation, but the earliest phases of the present building date to the 12th and 13th centuries, with substantial additions in the 14th and 15th. Saint Joseph's Roman Catholic Church, on Potter Hill, was designed by the architect Leonard Stokes in 1911.

Scarborough Castle|Pickering Castle[castle adventures]
Hello and welcome back to new castle adventure!
Short history about castles!
Scarborough Castle
Remains of medieval Royal fortress.On a site previously fortified by the Romans,Saxons,and Vikings,the original Norman wooden castle was built in the 1130s.Sited to control strategic crossings
andapproaches,the castle commands extensive views over the North Sea.
Originally built to subdue the unruly Saxon North of England,
it was rebuilt and strengthened from 1150 onwards using local stone.Over the centuries,structures were added and reinforced with medieval monarchs investing heavily in order to guard the Yorkshire coastline from the threat of Scottish and overseas invasion.
Peace with Scotland and the end of the continental wars led to the decline of the fortress inthe 17th century.The castle has been a ruin since the sieges of the English Civil War,between 1642 and 1648.
Pickering Castle
Well preserved remains of 13th century castle.First constructed as a Norman timber and earth motte and bailey castle around 1070,this was rebuilt in stone between 1180 and 1187,
with later fortifications added in the 11th and 12th centuries.
The castle remains are particularly well-preserved as it was one of only a few fortifications which were largely unaffected by the 13th century Wars of the Roses and the English Civil War of
the 17th century.
