==Education== The old Victorian school is the first building encountered when entering the village from the east. Built in 1856 by a charitable body known as the "Friends and Guardians of the Poor of the Village of Askham Bryan", it was later adopted by the Church of England. In 1862, the school had 69 children, later dwindling to 12 in 1967. In 1972, after 115 years as a school, the Askham Bryan Church of England school was sold to become a private residence.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.google.co.uk/books/edition/_/X_HW0AEACAAJ?hl=en&kptab=overview|title=Askham Bryan Remembered a Picture History of the Village by J.
