Hopperton is a village in the Harrogate district of North Yorkshire, England. It is part of the Allerton Mauleverer with Hopperton parish. The village is situated close to the A59, the A1(M) and the A168. Cattal railway station is situated just under two miles from the village with services to Leeds, York and Harrogate. Until 1958, Hopperton had its own railway station next to a level crossing on the original A1 Great North Road.[1] The village had one pub, the Mason Arms, which closed in 2020 and is now a dwelling house.[2] [3] The nearest towns are Knaresborough to the west, and across the county border in West Yorkshire, Wetherby 5miles to the south west. The latter offers the closest large supermarket to Hopperton.
