Cliffe circiluar walk.
Cliffe is a small village in the East Riding of Yorkshire, located about 5 miles east of Selby and 16 miles south of York.
The village has a long history, dating back to at least the 12th century when it was mentioned in the Domesday Book. The village was once a busy port on the River Ouse, and in the 18th and 19th centuries it was an important center for the shipping of agricultural products and coal.
During the 19th century, Cliffe was also an important center for shipbuilding. Many ships were constructed in the village, including some that were used during the Crimean War.
The village also played a role in the history of the Methodist movement in Yorkshire. In 1744, John Wesley, the founder of Methodism, preached in Cliffe, and the village became an important center for Methodism in the region.
Today, Cliffe is a small, quiet village with a population of just over 300 people. It retains many of its historic buildings, including several old coaching inns and a 14th-century church. The village is popular with visitors who come to explore its history and enjoy the peaceful countryside surroundings.
