East Hauxwell is a small rural civil parish in Richmondshire, North Yorkshire, England, set a few miles south of the market town of Leyburn. The parish consists of scattered stone-built houses and working farms amid rolling pasture and quiet lanes, with open views towards the surrounding dales and moorland.
Historically agricultural, the community remains centred on sheep and cattle farming and contains a number of traditional farmsteads and older houses that reflect its roots in the old North Riding of Yorkshire. Its tranquillity and landscape appeal to walkers and those seeking a rural escape, and the parish has the small‑scale, close-knit social character typical of upland Yorkshire settlements.
