14. The hamlet village of Newton-under-Roseberry, Cleveland
As you drive along the Great Ayton - Guisborough road, the skyline is dominated by striking outline of the rocky 1051 ft (320 m) high 'mountain' of Roseberry Topping, a favourite tourist walk.
Roseberry Topping as a backdrop to the small and lovely hamlet-village of Newton-under-Roseberry which dates back to early medieval times. (was called Newton-in-Cleveland).
The medieval church of St Oswald. Rebuilt in 1855? and the chancel was rebuilt in 1897 and the 'stocky' tower in 1901.
The Kings Head Hotel in Newton-under-Roseberry, Cleveland, was built in 1796 for the local landowner as his manor house. Its role is now reversed! as it now serves the locals (and visitors) with good food and beer after a good walk in the Cleveland Hills.
