A Vision of Britain through Time provides the following description of Thornthwaite from John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales of 1870-72:
- "THORNTHWAITE, a township, a chapelry, and a [registration] sub-district, in Pateley-Bridge [registration] district, [West Riding of] Yorkshire. The township lies 2¾ miles W by S of Darley [railway] station, and 4½ S by E of Pateley-Bridge; and is called T[hornthwaite]-with-Padside. Acres: 1,960. Population: 257. Houses: 56.
- "The chapelry extends much beyond the township, and is in Hampsthwaite parish. Post town, Ripley, under Leeds. Population: 930. The living is a [perpetual] curacy in the diocese of Ripon. Value, £109.* Patron, the Vicar of Hampsthwaite."
Padside is a hamlet in the parish, 5 miles south of Pateley Bridge. There was a house named Padside Hall. (Source: Bartholomew, Gazetteer of the British Isles of 1887)
Wikipedia does not have articles on Thornthwaite or Padside, but does mention the "Folly Gill Flax Mill" which existed in the township at one time.
Historically, Thornthwaite with Padside (#12 on the left side of the map) was in the ancient or ecclesiastical parish of Hampsthwaite in the Lower division of the Claro Wapentake. From 1894 until 1937, Thornthwaite with Padside was located in Pateley Bridge Rural District and from 1937 until 1974 in Ripon and Pateley Bridge Rural District. In 1974 the area became part of the Harrogate District in the new administrative county of North Yorkshire.

- A Vision of Britain through Time also provides links to maps of the West Riding, produced by the United Kingdom Ordnance Survey, illustrating the boundaries between the civil parishes and the rural districts at various dates. Those listed here provide data for the part of the West Riding that transferred to North Yorkshire in 1974 plus the northern parts of Leeds and Bradford. These maps all blow up to a scale that will illustrate small villages and large farms or estates.

[Note: this map appears to be no longer available on the Vision of Britain website. This is unfortunate because the equivalent map from 1931-44 was redrawn after the 1938 reorganization of the rural districts in the northern part of the West Riding.]
