Hornby is a small village and civil parish in North Yorkshire, set amid rolling farmland on the fringes of the Yorkshire Dales landscape. The settlement is composed of stone cottages and farmsteads, with a parish church and other vernacular buildings that reflect its long rural history.

Life in the parish is quietly agricultural, with local farms, walking routes and a close‑knit community character; small‑scale tourism and commuting to nearby market towns supplement the local economy, and the surrounding lanes, dry‑stone walls and hedgerows make it a pleasant spot for countryside recreation.
