Rosedale East Side is a civil parish in North Yorkshire, England. The parish is divided from Rosedale West Side civil parish by the River Seven, which meanders between the two parishes. The village of Rosedale Abbey is within the parish.
History Rosedale East Side was created as a civil parish in 1866, from the ancient parish of Middleton, which was in the wapentake of Pickering Lythe. Previous to this, both this parish and the civil parish of Rosedale West Side, were townships, with the River Seven dividing the two. In 1974, the parish was transferred from the old county of North Riding of Yorkshire, into North Yorkshire. The parish ONS code is E04007620, and the postcode is YO18, under the post town of Pickering. Besides bordering Rosedale West Side, the parish also shares a border with the civil parishes of Danby, Glaisdale, Hartoft, and Westerdale. Historically, the area was known for its alum, jet and most importantly, iron ore resources, which were important for the developing steel industry on Teesside. The settlement of Rosedale Abbey (a village), lies within the parish.
