St Mary's Church Goathland built in 1896.

Goathland Village: St Mary's Church Goathland built in 1896 on the site of a medieval church.

It is pleasant but busy village in the summer because its tourist attraction status has been much enhanced by the (Yorkshire Television)/ITV's TV '1960's' set series "Heartbeat". However, it is good starting point for several really nice walks in the surrounding country side. (see page 17-18)

 

For Yorkshire TV's drama series Heartbeat Goathland becomes 1960's Aidensfield.

Goathland Village: Scripps Garage, featured in Yorkshire TV's drama series "Heartbeat" Goathland becomes 1960's "Aidensfield".
