Wycliffe, par., North-Riding Yorkshire, on river Tees, 5 miles E. of Barnard Castle, 2229 ac., pop. 175; was the birthplace of John de Wycliffe (1324-87), the reformer, whose family settled here at the Norman Conquest. The church (restored 1850) contains monuments of the family, and in the rectory is a fine old portrait of Wycliffe. Wycliffe Hall is a seat in the par.
