Barlow is a small, rural village and civil parish in North Yorkshire, lying in the gentle, agricultural landscape of the Vale of York within the Selby district. Set amongst arable fields and hedgerows, it has a quietly scenic character that appeals to walkers and birdwatchers and sits within easy reach of the larger town of Selby and the wider English counties of Yorkshire.
Historically the village has agricultural roots and retains a number of traditional cottages and older buildings, while community life centres on village events and the local hall; many residents now commute to nearby towns for work, helping the settlement keep its rural feel while remaining connected to regional services and industry.
