Transcription

Etymology

The first part of the name Catterton is the Brittonic cadeir, "chair, throne".[1] This is suffixed with the Old English -tun, "a farm".[1] Chadderton and Chatterton in Lancashire have the same origins.[1]

History

Catterton is the location of one moated site which is a scheduled monument under the Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Areas Act 1979. Most such sites were built between 1250 and 1350, though construction continued throughout the medieval period.[2]

In the 17th century, the inhabitants of Catterton came into conflict with people from the neighbouring village of Bilbrough over a tract of unenclosed moorland between the two settlements. A meeting between the two sides organised by the intervention of prominent Yorkshire figures including Robert Fairfax devolved into violence. In 1723, the two sides resolved their dispute by digging a ditch from Thwaites Lane to Escars to divide the land; the ditch still existed by 1900.[3]
