About West Ness

West Ness lies in North Yorkshire's gentle farming country between Helmsley and Pickering, reached via the A170 from York or Thirsk. Most journeys involve short trips to neighbouring villages like Nunnington and Slingsby, though some visitors come for longer stays exploring the nearby moors. The village church houses a remarkable 12th-century Norman tympanum showing Daniel in the lions' den.
