Carlton is a small rural village and civil parish in North Yorkshire, England. Nestled among rolling farmland and hedgerows, it retains a quiet, agricultural character while sitting within easy reach of the wider Yorkshire countryside, including the Yorkshire Dales and the North York Moors.
The settlement has historic roots visible in stone cottages and a traditional parish church; its economy was long centred on farming but today is more mixed, with commuters and small local businesses joining agricultural activity. Social life tends to revolve around the village hall, the local pub and seasonal events, giving Carlton a strong sense of community despite its modest size.
