Lockton is a small rural village and civil parish on the southern edge of the North York Moors National Park, in North Yorkshire, England, a few miles north of Pickering. It sits among rolling moorland and dales, with traditional stone cottages and lanes that make it a quiet spot popular with walkers and anyone wanting easy access to moorland scenery.
Historically agricultural, the local economy remains centred on farming with a modest contribution from rural tourism; the community is small and close-knit, marked by typical village events and a strong sense of place. Its landscape and proximity to long-distance paths give it a timeless, largely unspoilt character valued by residents and visitors alike.
