Thirsk is a historic market town in North Yorkshire, England, with a population of around 5,000 people (2021 census), situated roughly 23 miles north of York and 20 miles south of Middlesbrough. It is famous as the home of James Herriot (real name Alf Wight), whose veterinary books inspired the TV series All Creatures Great and Small, and his former surgery is now the World of James Herriot Museum. The town has a medieval market square and hosts a weekly Monday market and monthly farmers’ markets, reflecting its strong agricultural roots. Nearby attractions include the White Horse of Kilburn (a giant hillside figure measuring 318 feet long and 220 feet high) and Thirsk Racecourse, established in 1855 and still active today.
