About
Our StoryWap-en-take (n) “Besides being divided into three Ridings, East, North and West (a Riding being derived from the Norse word “thriding,” meaning a third part) Yorkshire was further sub-divided into administrative areas called Wapentakes - the Danelaw equivalent of an Anglo-Saxon Hundred in most other counties. The word derived from an assembly or meeting place, usually at a cross-roads or near a river, where literally one’s presence or a vote was taken by a show of weapons, where-in after a night of merriment would ensue.”We wanted to create ‘A Little Piece of Yorkshire’, by combining a Café, Bar and sweet treat Bakery to serve and support the local community. We are grumpy old man, child and dog friendly.
