Allerton Mauleverer Priory was a medieval monastic house in North Yorkshire, England. The site is in Allerton Mauleverer with Hopperton Parish in the former Harrogate District of North Yorkshire.

Claro was a wapentake of the West Riding of Yorkshire, England. It was split into two divisions. The Upper Division included the parishes of Farnham, Fewston, Hampsthwaite, Kirkby Malzeard and Pannal and parts of Aldborough, Knaresborough, Otley, Little Ouseburn, Ripley, Ripon, Wetherby and Whixley, many of which formed exclaves. The Lower Division included the parishes of Allerton Mauleverer, Goldsborough, Hunsingore, Kirk Deighton, Kirkby Overblow, Leathley, Spofforth with Stockeld, Weston and parts of Addingham, Aldborough, Harewood, Ilkley, Kirk Hammerton, Otley, Ripley and Whixley. At the time of the Domesday Book the wapentake was known as Burghshire, named from its meeting place at Aldborough. In the 12th century the name was changed to Claro, from Claro Hill near Coneythorpe, presumably its meeting place. Claro wapentake is exceptional because it is one of the few hundreds or wapentakes to have divisions with exclaves. The historic reasons for this situation are obscure but are likely based on patterns of settlement and transportation. The area of the wapentake falls almost entirely within the former district of Harrogate in North Yorkshire. Claro Registration District, existed from 1 January 1947 until 1 April 1974, when it was absorbed by the North Yorkshire district.

Allerton waste recovery park is a waste recovery and incineration site located on a former quarry at Allerton Mauleverer, near Knaresborough, England. It is operated by AmeyCespa on behalf of North Yorkshire County Council and City of York Council, the site is capable of handling 320,000 tonnes (350,000 tons) of household waste per year. The site is expected to cost £1.4 billion over 25 years, but is estimated it that the cost of not incinerating over the same time period would be £1.7 billion in landfill and other costs. Despite being labelled as just an incinerator, it also recycles and uses biodegradable waste to generate biogas, which is why it is known as a waste recovery park. The site is just off the A168, 4 miles (6.4 km) east of Knaresborough and 7 miles (11 km) north of Wetherby.

Clareton is a hamlet in the civil parish of Coneythorpe and Clareton, in North Yorkshire, England. Since 24 March 1888 it has shared a civil parish with the neighbouring village of Coneythorpe, to the southwest. Its name is said to come from the meeting place, a local hill, of the ancient Wapentake of Claro. Unlike Coneythorpe, Clareton is recorded in the Domesday Book. In 1066 Clareton was worth £10, but by 1086 only £2 15s., with much of the land being waste following the Harrying of the North. Until 1974 the hamlet was within the West Riding of Yorkshire, and, until 2023, Clareton was then part of the Borough of Harrogate. It is now administered by the unitary North Yorkshire Council.

Whixley Hall is a historic building on West Lane in Whixley, a village in North Yorkshire, England. The house may have been built in 1654; there is a datestone with this date, but it has been moved. Christopher Tancred died in 1754, and under the terms of his will, the building was converted into an almshouse for 12 elderly men. This operated until the mid-19th century. In 1907, Walter Brierley rebuilt the central section of the south front, in a similar style to its original form. The building was Grade II listed in 1952. By 2025, it was a private house with six bedrooms, five bathrooms, and 54 acres (22 ha) of grounds. The house is built of red brick on a stone-capped plinth, with a modillion eaves cornice, and a hipped stone slate roof. There are two storeys and a H-shaped plan, with the courtyard at the rear. The main range has seven bays, the outer two bays at each end projecting slightly behind which are rear wings. In the centre of the main range is a doorway with a moulded surround, and a broken segmental pediment with a vase on consoles. The windows are cross windows under flat brick arches. At the rear some windows are mullioned, there is a large staircase window, and two re-set datestones. Inside, there is an early staircase in the east range.

The Church of the Ascension is an Anglican church in the village of Whixley, North Yorkshire, England. Whilst the Domesday Book entry for Whixley mentions the presence of a church, the main fabric of the existing church dates to the 14th century. Up until it was renovated in the 19th century, it was dedicated to St James, but was rededicated as the Church of the Ascension, and it is now a grade II* listed building. Nikolaus Pevsner notes that it is unusual for a village church to be composed of mostly the same style of architecture (Decorated).

Flaxby is a village and civil parish in the Harrogate district of North Yorkshire, England. It is close to the A1(M) motorway and 2 miles (3.2 km) east of Knaresborough. Flaxby was once part of the wapentake of Claro. It is also part of the ecclesiastical parish of Goldsborough (St Mary).In 1994, an Early Iron Age farmstead of the 7th–6th centuries BC was discovered by archaeologists, but the site was abandoned until the late Roman period.Proposals have been put forward to develop the land to the east of Flaxby, north of the A59 road and west of the A1(M) motorway into a new town called Flaxby Park. The developers have announced their intention to build 2,500 - 3,000 homes on 440 acres (180 ha) of land that would also see a primary school, a medical centre, leisure facilities and numerous shops and bars. The development would also include a bus park and ride system with the possibility of a new railway station on the York to Harrogate line. A railway station has already been proposed at Flaxby Moor (south of the A59) but in 2014, a feasibility study of new stations predicted a low demand of passenger numbers from a new station on the line.
