Newton is a small, rural civil parish in North Yorkshire, England, set among the rolling arable fields and hedgerows that characterise much of the county. The settlement itself comprises a compact cluster of stone cottages and farmsteads linked by quiet lanes, with a modest population and an economy still largely focused on farming and land management.
Its name comes from Old English meaning "new farm" and the parish has medieval roots, reflected in a handful of historic buildings and the parish church that marks a long continuity of local life. Community activity tends to revolve around agricultural events, occasional village gatherings and countryside pursuits such as walking, while residents rely on nearby market towns for most services.
