context_page_description: Exelby is a village in the Hambleton district of North Yorkshire, England. It is 2 miles south-east of Bedale and 0.5 miles west of the A1 motorway and is part of the civil parish of Exelby, Leeming and Londonderry. The civil parish had a total of 2,788 residents at the time of the 2011 census, though Exelby had only 80 homes. The name of the village derives from Old Danish or Old Norse and means Eskil's farm or Eskil's settlement.
  In the 1086 Domesday Book Exelby is noted as Aschilebi, with only one man but 20 ploughlands, and in the North Riding's Land of Count Alan. In 1066 Merleswein the Sheriff was Lord of the Manor, which by 1086 had been transferred to Robert of Moutiers, with Count Alan of Brittany as Tenant-in-chief.
  The village lies on the B6285, which connects Bedale with Exelby, Theakston, Burneston and the A6055 road just east of Burneston.
  In October 2018 the residents of the village, along with other community investors, bought the closed village pub, The Green Dragon. It was revamped and reopened as a cafe and community hub.
