Clifton-on-Yore is a tiny, rural parish in North Yorkshire, England, set amid rolling farmland and quiet lanes a short distance between Masham and Ripon. The parish sits close to the River Ure and is characterised by stone-built houses, hedged fields and the kind of sparsely populated landscape that makes it feel a long way from urban life despite reasonable road links.
Historically the area has strong links to local country estates and a small number of notable houses, and agriculture still shapes both the landscape and the local economy. Social life is low-key and community-focused, while visitors are drawn to the tranquillity, country walks and river fishing, with the broader attractions of the Yorkshire Dales and Nidderdale within easy reach.
