Irton is a small civil parish set within the rural landscape of North Yorkshire in England. The area is characterised by stone-built cottages and farmsteads scattered across rolling fields and hedgerows, with roots that reach back to the medieval period and a handful of listed buildings and a modest parish church reflecting that long history.

Economically the parish is largely agricultural, though many residents commute to nearby towns and the locality attracts walkers and visitors seeking quiet countryside. Social life revolves around a close-knit community, the parish council and occasional local events that help preserve local traditions and the built and natural heritage.
