Toponymy
The Survey of English Place-Names claims Ivelet derives from "Ifa's slope", similar to Ivinghoe.[1] However, it is also speculated the name may derive from "idhe" and "læghe" in Old Swedish, meaning "timber from yew" and "camp" respectively.[2]
Ivelet Bridge

Ivelet Bridge crosses the River Swale near Ivelet.[3] Dating from the late 16th century, the bridge has been designated a Grade II* listed structure.[4]
A coffin stone is set into the verge on the north side of the bridge for pall bearers to rest with a coffin on their way from Muker to the church at Grinton. The coffin stone is itself a Grade II structure.[5]
The bridge is featured in the British television series All Creatures Great and Small, in the episode "Call of the Wild".
