Burton Fleming which lies in the Yorkshire Wolds six miles from the seaside town of Bridlington is a sprawling village which contains a variety of small houses and cottages in an area that still revolves around agriculture. Change has taken place in the village but its traditions and legends still remain.
Archaeological evidence has shown that the earliest human occupation in and around the village dates from the Middle Stone Age. After that the area was settled by the first farmers of the New Stone Age.
Since the 14th century Burton Fleming also had the alternative name of North Burton. It has yet to be determined where the latter name came from but over the years became a very popular alternative name for the village. Indeed, it was only at the insistence of Scarborough General Post Office in the late 1920s that Burton Fleming became the official and only name for the village.
Burton Fleming Church was originally a Chapel of ease belonging to Hunmanby Church. In 1115 the church and its ten Chapels of ease, including Burton Fleming, were given to Bardney Abbey in Lincolnshire by Walter de Gant.
By 1269 the village became a separate vicarage with its own priest and from that date all the vicars are known and have been recorded but burials still took place in Hunmanby until 1828.
The Gypsey Race, the fresh water stream that runs through the village, is fed by springs from the Wolds. When the springs fill up they cause the Gypsey Race to run. The running of the Race has been associated with great calamity and hence it is known as the Woe Waters of the Wolds. There are many poems written about the Gypsey Race and folklore dating back to Pagan times adds to its mystery. *
