Egton

Egton is a village and civil parish in the Scarborough district of North Yorkshire, England about 5 miles (8.0 km) west of Whitby. There is a nearby village called Egton Bridge which is home to Egton railway station. The village was included in the Survey of English Dialects. Unlike the other sites, a full book was written on the local dialect by Hans Tidholm. Being a very isolated village, its ways of speech were very unusual in Britain.
