East Ness
East Ness and West Ness together form the English village of Ness, which sits on the south bank of the River Rye. The name Ness is believed to mean nose or headland in Medieval Norse, and Ness is the start of the hill that ultimately rises up to become Sutton Bank. The village of Ness is believed to have been split into West & East, following the Norman Invasion as the ownership of the village was split between two landlords. This land ownership split still continues today.

Castle Howard is a stately home in North Yorkshire, England, 15 miles north of York.
