History

Bishop Burton can be traced back to before the Doomsday Book. In this part of the web site articles about its history and its characters may be found. You might want to start with an Introduction to the History of Bishop Burton or Old Maps of Bishop Burton. The East Riding Museums online web site https://www.eastridingmuseums.co.uk/museums-online/ is also an excellent place to explore local history with many features and exhibitions available from the comfort of your own home.

Parish Records

Here are some transcriptions of the parish registers and analyses of census returns.

BB School Log

This category contains information and images about the pupils, teachers and buildings that formed the primary school in Bishop Burton. We are particularly interested in group photographs and we hope to complete the lists of names of those appear in the photographs together with information about what happened to them afterwards and what connection they now have to the village. If you have group photos that are not on the web site already please send them to Bryn Jones. He will scan them and load them onto the web site, returning the originals to you. Alternatively, scan them yourself and send them to him as an email attachment.
