Hunsingore is a village and civil parish in the county of North Yorkshire, England. It is situated near the River Nidd and the A1(M) motorway, about west of York, and north east of Wetherby.
== History == Hunsingore translates as "ofer or ridge of Hunsinge’s people". In the Domesday Book of 1086, the village is listed as Hulsingovre. The Goodricke family owned lots of land in the area and they lived in New House in Hunsingore rather than Ribston Hall. New House was believed to have been destroyed by Cromwell after the Battle of Marston Moor in 1644.
