Some Flookburgh Cottages

Few towns in England are named after fish, but Flookburgh is â€“ probably. Most sources think the town takes its name from the â€˜flukesâ€™ â€“ flat fish found in abundance in the sea nearby. An alternative theory is this was originally a Norse settlement named for a chieftain called Floki â€“ the old name for the place was Flokeburg. The first known mention of the town was in 1246, but by 1278 Edward I was granting it a market charter, confirmed subsequently by Henry IV and even later by Charles II in 1663.
