In 1870-72, John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales described Normanby like this:
NORMANBY, a village and a township in Ormsby parish, N. R. Yorkshire. The village stands 2 miles N E of Ormsby r. station, and 4 W N W of Guisborough; and has a post-office under Middlesborough. The township extends to the coast; and comprises 1, 343 acres ofland, and 355 of water. Real property, £7, 949; of which £4,060 are in iron-works. ...
Pop. in 1851, 195; in 1861, 2, 204. Houses, 397. The increase of pop. arose mainly from the opening of extensive ironstone works, and from the establishing of glass furnaces. Norman by Hall is a chief residence. Bricks and tiles are made. There is a national school.
