Thirsk is also the Darrowby of the late 'James Herriot' (Alf Wight), famous vet and author.

    On Front Street, which is the main road through the village, an avenue lined with trees, is an old timbered house and the historical village church, and over Cod Beck at the southern end is an old packhorse bridge.
