Marrick is a small civil parish in North Yorkshire, England, tucked into Swaledale in the Yorkshire Dales National Park a short distance from Reeth. The landscape is classic Dales country - drystone walls, grazing pastures and limestone scars - with Marrick Beck winding down to the River Swale.

The parish’s most notable historic site is Marrick Priory, a medieval foundation later put to domestic use and now home to an outdoor education centre; otherwise life here is quietly rural, dominated by sheep farming, small-scale tourism for walkers and climbers, and lingering traces of the old lead‑mining industry that shaped much of the dale’s history.
