Howsham is a small, largely rural parish in North Yorkshire just a few miles from the market town of Malton, sitting on the eastern side of the River Derwent. Its landscape is a mix of agricultural land, parkland and river floodplain, which gives the area a pleasantly open, slightly undulating character prized by walkers and birdwatchers.
The parish is centred on a historic estate whose grand house and grounds provide a touch of architectural interest and a reminder of the area’s long link with country farming and landed life; local economy remains largely agricultural with a modest contribution from tourism and heritage visits. With a small, close-knit population, Howsham has a quiet, village-like social feel and attracts visitors keen on riverside walks, wildlife and a slice of North Yorkshire history.
