History
The name "Menethorpe" means 'Men(n)ing's outlying farm/settlement'. Menethorpe was recorded in the Domesday Book as Mennistorp. Menethorpe was formerly a township in the parish of Westow and from 1866 was a civil parish in its own right. On 1 April 1935, the parish was abolished and merged with Burythorpe.

Until 1974, it was historically part of the East Riding of Yorkshire. Between 1974 and 2023 it was part of the Ryedale district. It is now administered by North Yorkshire Council.

The remains of the abandoned medieval village Menethorpe are visible as cropmarks and earthworks on aerial photographs.
