Map of the UK

Green Hammerton is a compact village and civil parish in the Harrogate district of North Yorkshire, sitting just off the A59 between York and Harrogate. It occupies gently rolling agricultural land on the edge of the Vale of York and still centres on a traditional village green, giving it a distinctly rural feel despite being within easy reach of larger towns.

The settlement has medieval roots and a number of older, listed buildings that reflect its long history, while modern life is shaped by a mix of farming and commuter households. Hammerton railway station on the Harrogate line provides direct links to nearby centres, and the parish retains an active community spirit with a village hall, local events and small-scale local services rather than heavy industry.
