Hawsker-cum-Stainsacre is a

Scarborough district of North Yorkshire, England. The population of the parish was listed as being 710 at the 2021 Census
.

History

Historically the area was in the

wapentake of Whitby Strand, and within the parish of Whitby. However, in 1878, it was made into a separate parish, and then later the parish of Helredale was created from lands in the north of the old parish boundary.[2] In 1859, the parish totalled an area of 4,396 acres (1,779 ha), but at the 2011 census, this amounted to 10,080 acres (4,079 hectares).[3][4]

All Saints Church

According to the

North Yorkshire County Council in 2015, listed the parish as having 850 inhabitants,[6] and this had dropped to 710 by the 2021 Census.[1]

There is a small church, built between 1876 and 1877 that is dedicated to All Saints, and is a

Grade II listed building.[7] previously, the Chapel of All Saints was in the parish, but this had fallen into disrepair by the 1820s, with only a 6.5-foot (2 m) cross to mark the site.[8] Besides the church, there are eleven other listed buildings in the parish, all are grade II listed.[9]

Electoral reform in 1832, and in 1885, saw many townships in the area, including Hawsker-cum-Stainsacre, being represented at Westminster by one Member of Parliament.[10] The area is now represented as part of the Scarborough and Whitby Constituency.[11]

In the west of the parish, Rigg Mill Beck and Stainsacre Beck both combine and run north-westwards into the River Esk above Ruswarp. Rigg Mill Beck used to have a water-powered corn mill working on it.[12][13] The parish contains the two settlements of Hawsker (High and Low), and Stainsacre, and consists of moorland in the south-west, arable land around the settlements, and a long coastal strip fronting onto the North Sea.[11][14]
