History
Barningham is listed in the Domesday Book under the Gilling Wapentake (later Gilling West and part of the Honour of Richmond) of Yorkshire as a property owned in 1066 by an Anglo-Saxon lord, Thor, before the Norman conquest; by 1086, the ownership had transferred to Enisant Musard, with Count Alan of Brittany as a tenant.[2]
The village, along with the wider and former Startforth Rural District, was formerly governed under the North Riding and was transferred to County Durham's governance in 1974.
Amenities
Barningham is a tranquil conservation village of around 60 houses. It has a large village green, a church, a stately hall occupied by a local landowning baronet, a village hall used by local interest groups and a recently restored pub. It is on the edge of moors stretching westwards to Cumbria and is a good base for walking the local dales and hills. The village has an enthusiastic local history society which runs a website and offers assistance to anyone trying to trace ancestors from the area.[3]
Notable buildings
Barningham Park has been the home of the Milbank family since 1690. It is a Grade II* listed country house dating from the 15th century[4] set in a 7000-acre estate.[5]
The Milbank Arms is a Grade II listed public house built in the early 19th century and extensively rebuilt in 2019. [6] It was formerly on the Campaign for Real Ale's National Inventory of Historic Pub Interiors.[7]
