Five smallholders, four tributaries (rent payers), fifteen burgesses, a priest and a church. There were fifty-three ploughlands, woodland, and three mills. In 1066, Earl Morcar held the lordship, which in 1086 transferred to King William I, who was also Tenant-in-chief.[2]

In 1823, Meltonby was in the parish of Pocklington, and the Wapentake of Harthill. The population at the time was 78, with occupations including six farmers & yeomen.[3]
