Many of the streets in Bishopthorpe are named after previous Archbishops: for example, Ramsey Avenue (Michael Ramsey, 1956–1961), Maclagan Road (William Maclagan, 1891–1908) and Lamplugh Crescent (Thomas Lamplugh, 1688–1691).
Police suggested that a black LHD BMW car might have been involved, due to an eyewitness account of a car at the same location as Lamplugh's car in Stevenage Road.
The manors of Workington and Lamplugh in Cumberland were given by William de Lancaster, in exchange for Middleton in Westmorland, to a relative, Gospatric, son of Orme, brother-in-law of Waldeve, Lord of Allerdale.
