Untitled[edit]

According to the 'Oxford dictionary of place names', the village was called Fristun in about 1030AD, and then by 1166 was Munchechesfryston. Fristun translates as 'Farmstead of the Frisians from the Old English Frisa + tun. The affix munuc (monk) was referring to its possession by Selby Abbey in the 11th century —Preceding unsigned comment added by Supertyke (talk • contribs) 11:13, 11 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Wrong image[edit]

I have removed this image from the page for several reasons:

1) The line through Monk Fryston is not electrified
2) The train is probably not heading south due to the loco shown (it is a Class 82 DVT, and they are mostly on the London end of the train) as it is on the left hand line and displaying red lights, so is most probably going north as red lights indicate the rear of the train
3) It is in GNER livery, which is at least three rail company's ago
4) The original image on geograph states Hambleton, a junction some 6 kilometres (3.7 mi) to the east of Monk Fryston
