Carlingholme Hill is a prominent landmark located in Yorkshire, England. Standing at an elevation of approximately 300 meters, it is classified as a hill rather than a mountain. The hill is situated in close proximity to the village of Carlingholme, which lends its name to the landmark.

Carlingholme Hill offers breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside, making it a popular destination for nature enthusiasts and hikers. Its position in the Yorkshire Dales National Park adds to its allure, as it is surrounded by picturesque landscapes and diverse wildlife.

The hill itself is characterized by gently sloping terrain, covered in a patchwork of green fields and dense woodlands. Its summit is easily accessible, with well-maintained footpaths leading to the top. From the peak, visitors can enjoy panoramic vistas of the rolling hills, charming villages, and meandering rivers that define the Yorkshire region.

Carlingholme Hill has a rich history, with archaeological evidence suggesting human activity in the area dating back to the Neolithic period. Ancient burial mounds and stone circles have been discovered on the hill, attesting to its significance in the past.

Today, Carlingholme Hill remains an important landmark for locals and tourists alike. Its natural beauty, coupled with its historical significance, makes it an ideal destination for those seeking outdoor adventure or a peaceful retreat in the heart of Yorkshire.

A section of the old road The current OS map gives some clues as to the old route of the A167, which at one time meandered its way along here, past Plantation House and onwards towards Dalton on Tees. My guess is that the route was improved in the 1950's, as were several other sections of main roads in the old North Riding in that decade.

A167 towards Dalton on Tees Taken from a point where an overgrown section of the former road joins the current route, which was probably upgraded in the 1950's. The current OS map indicates several sections of old road meanders along here, but most have now virtually disappeared except for the nest meander on the right, some 300m further on.

Approaching a junction on A167 Ahead and to the right, a vehicle waits to turn on to the A167 from the B1263, the turning being right on the grid line. The A167 between Croft on Tees and Northallerton is generally a pleasant road to drive as it carries relatively little traffic.

Road junction at Low Entercommon At this point a minor road meets the A167. The sign on the left indicates the boundary between Richmondshire and Hambleton, two of the local authorities which operated within North Yorkshire until 2023 when the whole county came under one administration. One assumes that such signs are now obsolete. Toll Bar Garage is just visible in the distance.

Old Toll House This wreck of a building, the back wall and most of the rear portion of the roof have fallen in, is the toll keepers house on the Boroughbridge and Durham Turnpike which was built some-time around 1745. It now stands forlorn next to the A167 which runs from Topcliffe in North Yorkshire to Cowgate in Tyne & Wear.
