From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Skipton-on-Swale is a small village in the Hambleton district of North Yorkshire, England. It lies on the A61 road, about 4 miles west of Thirsk.

As the name indicates, the River Swale runs through the village, crossed by a bridge designed by John Carr and built in 1781.[1]
