Brawby is a small village and civil parish in the Ryedale district of North Yorkshire, England, set in rolling agricultural countryside that opens out towards the valleys of the nearby River Derwent and the gentle hills of the Howardian Hills. It has the compact feel of a traditional Yorkshire village, with stone cottages, scattered farmsteads and quiet lanes that attract walkers and people seeking a rural pace of life.
Historically the parish has been dominated by farming, and that agricultural identity still shapes the local economy and social life, while a handful of historic buildings and a small community hub keep the village character intact; the result is a close‑knit rural community valued for its landscape, peace and connections to wider North Yorkshire countryside.
