Fremington is a hamlet in the Yorkshire Dales in North Yorkshire, England.[1][2] The hamlet is almost joined to Reeth and Grinton. It is split into Low Fremington which is built along the B6270 and High Fremington which is a scattering of houses running up towards Fremington Edge.
The origin of the place-name is from the Old English words Fremi (or Frema), ing and tun and means estate associated with a man named Fremi (or Frema). It appears as Fremington in the Domesday Book of 1086.[3]
In the 19th-century a hoard of 1st-century Roman horse harness fittings, known as the Fremington Hagg Hoard, was found near Fremington.[4][5]
