Бубвит: Тарихы мен қазіргі жағдайы

Village and civil parish in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England

The ancient parish of Bubwith also covers the village of Breighton and the hamlets of Gunby and Willitoft, but its location on and crossing over the River Derwent led to its becoming the largest settlement in the area. The village's name means Bubba's wood, Bubba being a Scandinavian male name. It is listed as "Bobewyth" in the 11th century accounts of Selby Abbey. In Domesday Book (1086) Bubwith is written as "Bubuid". Before the Conquest, lordship was held by Alwin and Ketil; after, Gilbert Tison became tenant in chief. Though there has been a recorded river crossing since at least the year 1200, the present bridge over the Derwent, consisting of three limestone arches and several flood arches, replaced a "dangerous and inconvenient" ferry service when it was built in 1798. Crossing the bridge required a toll until 1936, with the original costs amounting to three shilling for six horses, and 10 pence for twenty head of oxen. Certain vehicles, such as funeral processions, were exempt from the toll. It closed to passengers in 1954. Breighton was also used as the site of an airfield for Halifax, Wellington and Lancaster bombers during the Second World War. The Bubwith telephone exchange has been ADSL enabled since July 2005, and became ADSL Max enabled in March 2006. It has also been enabled for 21CN, and has been accepting orders for FTTC BT Infinity since December 2013

In the mid 1970s Bubwith was the location where John Hemmens ran his model steam business operating from one of the Breighton aerodrome Nissen huts. The models are highly regarded by steam enthusiasts.

Elementary education is provided by Bubwith Community Primary School, and The Bubwith Centre, which hosts Bubwith Playgroup. To the rear of the centre are playing fields. The parish church of All Saints dates from the 12th century and is built in white Tadcaster stone. Some Norman stonework remains, but the structure dates mainly from the 13th to 15th centuries. It was restored in 1894 5 by C. Hodgson Fowler and Ewan Christian. The church was designated a Grade I listed building in 1960 and is now recorded in the National Heritage List for England, maintained by Historic England. There are of playing fields for the local cricket club and three local football clubs. The site holds three tennis courts used by the Bubwith Tennis Club. There is a licensed bar, and sports hall that runs events and weekly classes in Zumba, Tai Chi, Boxfit and Salsa. The Cyril Wiles Room is used for Pilates and Yoga and the daily Bubwith 'Under fives'. The Centre is also used by the local community for private parties and the Youth Club. Village amenities include an off licence with delicatessen, The White Swan public house, a store, an Indian restaurant, award winning butchers J A Mounfield & Son and a hairdressers.
