Located within the North York Moors Natiaonal Park, Danby is a small village serviced by the Middlesbrough and Whitby lines and Arriva bus service. A little over a mile to the south-east are the remains of Danby Castle. It was built in the 14th century for Lord Latimer as a sign of his great wealth.
