The Moorcock Inn is in the Hawes’ civil parish of the Richmondshire district of North Yorkshire, England. The inn, 400 yards (365m) east from the border with Cumbria, is at the junction of the A684 and B6259 roads, and 1,476 yards (1,500m) north-east from Garsdale railway station, previously Hawes Junction. The station is in the hamlet of Garsdale Head, in the South Lakelkand district of Cumbria. According to "The Yorkshire Post", Moorcock Inn dates to the 1740’s. East of the inn towards Garsdale station is Dandry Mire Viaduct (alternatively Moorcock Viaduct) over which passed, on Christmas Eve 1910, the St Pancras to Glasgow Express which collided into the rear of two engines. Twelve dead from the crash were kept in the inn cellar before burial in Hawes churchyard.
