Map of the UK

Little Timble is a very small, rural civil parish in North Yorkshire, tucked into rolling moorland and pasture on the edge of the Washburn Valley. The landscape is dominated by drystone walls, scattered stone farmsteads and hedged fields, with easy access to reservoir shores and upland walking routes that give it a quietly scenic, almost secluded feel despite being within reach of larger market towns.

Its character is agricultural and low‑key: sheep and hill farming remain important economically, while heritage features and traditional field patterns hint at medieval origins. Social life tends to centre on nearby villages and shared community facilities, and the area appeals to walkers and those seeking a peaceful rural base rather than a built‑up tourist centre.
