Harton is a small, rural civil parish in North Yorkshire, England, set in the rolling farmland typical of the county. Rather than a single nucleated village it comprises scattered farms and houses linked by lanes and public footpaths, giving a quiet, open feel and plenty of country-walking opportunities.
Historically the area reflects the patchwork of medieval landholdings and traditional stone buildings that characterise much of the region; today the local economy is largely agricultural with some residents commuting to nearby towns. Social life is on a small scale and community-minded, and the parish’s rural character preserves a strong sense of continuity with Yorkshire’s farming past.
