Copmanthorpe (/ˈkɒpmənˌθɔːrp/) is a village and civil parish in the City of York in the English county of North Yorkshire, 4 miles (6.4 km) south-west of York, west of Bishopthorpe and close to Acaster Malbis, Askham Bryan and Askham Richard.

[7] Copmanthorpe is bounded to the north by the A64, while the East Coast Main Line runs through its south-east periphery; to the west lies open countryside.

It is recorded that the Lord of Copmanthorpe Manor was an Anglo-Saxon, named Gospatrick, at the time of the Norman Conquest of England.

According to the Domesday Book of 1086, the title was handed to Erneis de Burun in 1084, when he became Sheriff of Yorkshire.

The Vavasour family were the holders of the Barotnetcy of Haselwood near Tadcaster from 1628, which included estates in Killingthorpe, Spalington and Copmanthorpe.

[12] A railway accident occurred on 25 September 2006, when the 14:25 Plymouth to Edinburgh Virgin Cross Country service collided with a car that had veered off Moor Lane and onto the tracks, killing the car driver and causing the front carriage of the Voyager train set to derail.

Originally, the village was part of the Rural West Ward of the Unitary Authority of the City of York.

[20] Originally the village was a place for tradesmen and farming, but currently Copmanthorpe is a functional commuter village, with two churches, a post office, a library, two coffee shops, two hair dresser's, a barber's, a pharmacy, two convenience stores, one pub and several takeaways.

[21] Copmanthorpe Recreation Centre ("the Rec") provides most of the sporting and many of the social facilities in the village.

[22] Allotments, with fifty four plots, can be found on Temple Lane and are run by Copmanthorpe Parish Council.

[24] There are numerous village functions throughout the year, including the Carnival in summer and the Fayre in spring.

The local branch of the Women's Institute was formed in 1924 and moved into a purpose built hall in 1928.

[25] To date, the event has raised over £25,000 which has been given away to local charities, good causes and organisations such as Scouts, Guides and sports clubs.

[29] The traffic lights at the end of Top Lane that used to provide access to the bypass for village residents were removed in 2002.

[7] Plans have been put forward to reopen the station along with others in the area surrounding York, but these have failed to materialise.

The cricket club, which has attained ECB Clubmark status, has around 90 members across all age groups.
