Hope I am not too late to respond on the above subject - and apologies if you
are already aware of the following
A Toll Bar Cottage still exists at Skelton, near York and it is inhabited. It
is situated on the west side of the main A19 Trunk Road, which runs from York to
Easingwold (and beyond), just south of the turning to Overton. The road was
first turnpiked in 1752.
