Ellington High and Low is a small, rural civil parish in North Yorkshire, England, consisting of the neighbouring hamlets of High Ellington and Low Ellington set in gently rolling countryside. The area is dominated by farmland and pasture, quiet lanes and a patchwork of hedgerows and fields that make it popular for local walking and enjoying the rural landscape rather than for heavy development.

The settlement has medieval roots and several traditional stone farmhouses and cottages, reflecting its long agricultural history; today the economy remains largely farming-based with many residents commuting to nearby market towns for work and services. Community life tends to be quiet and close-knit, with parish meetings and local events giving a sense of continuity with the historic character of the place.
