New Earswick

New Earswick is a village in the unitary authority of City of York in the north of England, near the River Foss, north of York, Yorkshire and south of Haxby. In 1901, the philanthropist Joseph Rowntree bought 150 acres (0.6 km²) of agricultural land and built workers cottages with, 12 per acre (340 m² each), along with a Folk Hall, a school, and a surgery. The cottages are reminiscent of the Arts and Crafts movement style, and they are now in the care of the Joseph Rowntree Housing Trust. The village became a Conservation Area in 1991.
