From 1886 Youlthorpe was part of the civil parish of Youlthorpe with Gowthorpe which was abolished on 1 April 1935 with the creation of the civil parish of Bishop Wilton.^[1]

East farmhouse in the settlement was designated a Grade II listed building in 1987 and is now recorded in the National Heritage List for England, maintained by Historic England.^[2]

The name Youlthorpe originally derived from the Old Norse Eyjulfrþorp meaning 'Eyjulfr's secondary settlement'. Eyjulfr was later replaced with another personal name, Jol.^[3]
