===Settlement=== Construction of the Heworth Green Villas on Heworth Road began about 1817.<ref>[http://www.archaeologicalplanningconsultancy.co.uk/mga/projects/heworth/yhc03.pdf Archaeological investigation of Heworth Croft area] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071010085011/http://www.archaeologicalplanningconsultancy.co.uk/mga/projects/heworth/yhc03.pdf |date=10 October 2007 }}, pp. 1β7</ref> Until the mid-19th century, the Lord of the Manor was the Reverend [[Robert William Bilton Hornby]]. The Ordnance Survey map of 1849, shows that Heworth was effectively a square of three parallel streets sandwiched between the then Scarborough Road and East Parade. On the outskirts of the village near [[Strays of York|Monk Stray]] was [[Elmfield College]], a [[Primitive Methodism|Primitive Methodist]] foundation which existed from 1864 to 1932, when it merged with [[Ashville College]] in [[Harrogate]]. All that is left of the college now is numbers 1 and 9 Straylands Grove, next to Monk Stray, and staff housing along Elmfield Terrace and Willow Grove. The church of Holy Trinity (architect: [[George Fowler Jones]]) was added in 1869; outlying features included a [[Methodist Church of Great Britain|Wesleyan]] Chapel, the manor house, a public house (''The Britannia''), a windmill, several potteries, Heworth Hall and Heworth House. At that time [[Tang Hall]] was just that β a hall situated in parkland; since then it has developed into its own neighbourhood. [[Christ Church, York|Christ Church]] was built on Stockton Lane in 1964. Heworth became a [[Conservation Area]] in 1975.
