History
The name 'Easington' means "Farm/settlement at or called Yesing", Yesing meaning "the gushing one", a stream-name. Easington is a deserted medieval village; the village existed in 1296 but by the 18th century it was only 2 farms. Easington was formerly a township in the parish of Belford; in 1866 Easington became a civil parish in its own right.
