Killerby is a very small, sparsely populated civil parish in North Yorkshire, England, characterised more by scattered farmsteads and rolling fields than a nucleated village. Quiet lanes, hedgerows and patches of pasture give it a strongly rural feel and wide views across the surrounding countryside.
The local economy is dominated by agriculture and other rural enterprises, and socially the community is dispersed, relying on nearby market towns for services. Historically the area sits within the old North Riding of Yorkshire tradition and retains field patterns and older farm buildings that hint at its long farming heritage; its main appeal is peaceful countryside and historic rural character rather than visitor facilities.
