Martons Both is a small rural civil parish in the Craven district of North Yorkshire, comprising the neighbouring villages of East Marton and West Marton. Set on the gentle fringe of the Yorkshire Dales, it’s characterised by rolling farmland, dry‑stone walls and traditional stone houses that give the area a quietly picturesque, pastoral feel.
The local economy remains largely agricultural with a close‑knit community and a handful of historic buildings and a modest parish church reflecting its medieval roots. Its proximity to market towns such as Skipton and to popular walking country means the parish combines an agricultural way of life with a steady trickle of visitors seeking rural charm and quiet lanes.
