Newton upon Derwent is a small village and civil parish in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England, set beside the River Derwent. It lies in a low-lying agricultural landscape with riverside meadows and pleasant walking routes, and is a short drive from York.
Historically the name reflects a 'new' settlement beside the river, and the village keeps a largely rural character with farming alongside residents who commute to nearby towns. Social life is quiet and community-focused, with riverside birdlife, country walks and a modest roster of village activities giving it a peaceful, scenic appeal.
