Milby Lock is a historic working lock on the River Ure at Boroughbridge, forming the eastern end of the Milby Cut — an 18th‑century navigation channel engineered to bypass the old Boroughbridge mill weir. It remains fully operational today, is accessible by public footpath, and sits beside one of the interpretation boards for the 1322 Battle of Boroughbridge.

Myton Bridge

Highlight • Monument

A bridge at Myton has existed since the early 12th century, though the medieval versions repeatedly collapsed or were destroyed. By 1354, the medieval bridge had collapsed again, and for centuries the crossing was unreliable. The current iron bridge was commissioned by Henry Miles Stapylton of Myton Hall and completed in 1868. This was also the site of the Battle of Myton (1319), sometimes called “The White Battle,” a disastrous defeat for an English militia force led largely by clergy, overwhelmed by experienced Scottish raiders on 20 September 1319. It was fought in the meadows beside the River Swale at Myton‑on‑Swale, and its outcome forced Edward II to abandon his siege of Berwick.
