DescriptionVillage Hall and Crossroads, Great Broughton - geograph.org.uk - 24117.jpg
English: Village Hall and Crossroads, Great Broughton. In 1729 William Parkin was sentenced to death at York assizes for the murder of his brother-in-law, Anthony Noble, in a close near to Great Broughton. On his way back from York his escort rested at the Three Tuns in Stokesley where Parkin ate a "hearty dinner of beafsteaks and potatoes". He was then taken through Broughton and hanged and gibbetted. The gibbet must have been somewhere along the Ingleby road as it could be seen from Ingleby Manor. The Foulis family there had it removed.
