Great Langton Places Overview: History, Culture & Facts about Great Langton

Great Langton history

---

Great Langton shows signs of human activity throughout much of its postglacial history. Initially, in the late-glacial and early Holocene (Mesolithic) period, there is little sign of any human impacts on the landscape, but there are signs of forest fires shown by fire climax vegetation. Farming began only in the mid Holocene period, so human activity is likely to have been far larger from then onwards.

Great Langton etymology

The name ‘Great Langton’ derives from Old English meaning ‘Long farm/settlement’ ‘Lang’ is the old Saxon word for ‘long’, and ‘Tun’ being ‘town’ It is known as Great Langton because there is a Little Langton nearby.
