Terrington is a village and civil parish in the Ryedale district of North Yorkshire, England.
At the time of the time of Norman Conquest of England, lands in the manor were held by Ligulf, Northmann, Earl Morcar, Earl Waltheof and Gamal, son of Karli.
Those lands that were part of Foston manor became the property of the Lutrell family of Appleton-le-Street.
One suggestion is that it is from Tiefrung, a picture, linked to an older history of a Roman villa and mosaic floors.
The village lies less than 1.5 miles (2.4 km) from the nearest settlements of Wiganthorpe, Dalby, and Ganthorpe.
[11] Terrington Pre-School Playgroup also provides pre-school education from 2 years to school age serving Terrington but also the surrounding villages, of Hovingham, Welburn, Slingsby and further afield.
The village is also home to Terrington Hall Preparatory School, a medium-sized independent preparatory school for boys and girls aged 3 to 13, with a mixture of flexible/weekly boarders and day pupils.
In addition to the tennis & pickleball courts, Terrington Village Hall has a recreation ground with a full-sized football pitch.
