Thorpe le Street is a hamlet in the East Riding of Yorkshire, three and a half miles south-east of the market town of Pocklington and three miles north-west of the market town of Market Weighton.
The Roman Road known as Cade's Roadis thought likely to have passed through it,[1] which would explain "-le-Street".[2]
