Map of the UK

Hudswell is a small village and civil parish in Richmondshire, North Yorkshire, England, sitting on the rising ground above the River Swale. It occupies a quiet, rural spot of rolling farmland and stone-built houses, with open views towards the riverside valley and the hills that lead into the Yorkshire Dales, so it appeals to walkers and those looking for a peaceful base close to the dales.

The settlement has long agricultural roots and a compact community character; many of the buildings and field patterns reflect 18th- and 19th-century farming traditions, while economically people now combine local agriculture with commuting to nearby centres such as Richmond and the garrison at Catterick Garrison. Social life tends to be village-focused, with modest local events and a strong sense of rural neighbourliness rather than a large commercial centre.
