Ovington green and maypole

The small village of Ovington has little of note for the 'geograph' photographer, other than the maypole and the Four Alls pub. A parked 'Richmondshire' mini bus had me confused. Was I back in North Yorkshire, or is this a part of the old North Riding 'acquired' by Co Durham in 1974? Border lines marked on the map would indicate that this is indeed now administered by County Durham.
