Healey is a small village and civil parish in the Harrogate district of North Yorkshire, England. It is situated to the immediate west of Fearby and is near Leighton and Leighton Reservoir. It is about three miles west of Masham in the Nidderdale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. There are several holiday cottages and four Grade II Listed buildings, one of which is Healey Mill, a former corn mill.[2]

History

Healey was historically a township in the large ancient parish of Masham in the North Riding of Yorkshire. It became a separate ecclesiastical parish in 1849.[3] The civil parish of Healey with Sutton was formed in 1866. Sutton consists of a few farms (High Sutton, Low Sutton, Sutton Penn and Sutton Grange) 2 miles (3 km) north-east of Healey, and was transferred to the parish of Ellington High and Low in 1886. In 1934 3,213 acres (1,300 ha) of the uninhabited Masham Moor (which had been common to the parishes of Masham and East Witton) were added to the civil parish, which was then renamed Healey.[4]

Religion

The church, dedicated to St Paul, is a Grade II* Listed building completed in 1848.[5] It was designed in the decorative style by the Victorian architect Edward Buckton Lamb and has a central tower with a spire.[6] The stained glass east window was donated by Sir Robert Frankland-Russell.[7] The north window was commissioned by Lamb and bears his initials. The west window may also be to his design.[5]
