In 1823 Gransmoor was notd as falling within the parish of Burton Agnes and the Dickering Wapentake. The population was 85, which included six farmers and a carrier who operated between the hamlet and Bridlington once weekly. By 1840 population was 93, again with six farmers. A chapel was built in 1839 by the owner of all 1,100 acres of the hamlet’s land.[1][2]
