Muker history


Muker History photo

The name of Muker is of Norse origin, derived from the Old Norse mjór akr meaning “the narrow newly cultivated field” The location at the meeting of the River Swale and the Straw Beck with plenty of good meadow land around is most likely why the Norse chose to settle here. Agriculture continued to be the basis of economy in Muker until lead mining became more important during the late 18th century and early 19th century. Muker was also a major centre for hand knitting during this period.
