Winifred Holtby [1898-1935] was born in a nearby farm, lived much of her life in London, but was buried back in her home village. She is best known for her novel 'South Riding', published posthumously in 1936 thanks to editing done by Vera Brittain. The book was made into a three part drama for BBC1 in 2011. Her early death was due to Bright's disease.
