Dist:0.4km<br/>Former inn at Little Reedness, an early 18th century house with tie bars dated 1778, now a private house. During its history it has been variously known as The Angel Inn, The Ferry Inn and Ferryman's Cottage, with a boathouse by the road on the river side occasionally functioning as a makeshift mortuary for bodies pulled from the River Ouse. Local tradition holds that the body of a murderer executed at York was hung in a gibbet by the yard to the south on Church Lane. [Many thanks to Lorraine Cottingham for information]

Dist:0.4km<br/>Looking upstream from just by the church at Whitgift. The river is nearly 300m wide at this point, only a short way above where it enters the Humber. A high floodwall protects the village on the low-lying land,
