Lastingham is a small village and civil parish in North Yorkshire, England, tucked against the western edge of the North York Moors. Set among rolling moorland and limestone country, it’s a quiet rural community of stone cottages, lanes and a compact village core that attracts walkers and visitors keen to explore nearby dales and moorland scenery.

The village grew up around an early medieval monastery and its parish church still has an atmospheric, ancient crypt and surviving medieval fabric that hint at a long ecclesiastical past. Today the local economy is mainly agricultural with a boost from tourism - holiday cottages, walking groups and people interested in history or the moors - and the social life reflects a small, close-knit rural parish rather than a bustling commercial centre.
