Norton-on-Derwent sits on the east bank of the River Derwent, facing the market town of Malton in North Yorkshire, England. Positioned on the edge of the Vale of Pickering with the Yorkshire Wolds rising nearby, it grew from a medieval market settlement and still shows that history in a compact centre of older buildings and parish churches.
Today Norton shares much of its cultural and economic life with Malton, known locally for a strong food and market scene, with small shops, light industry and market trades alongside commuters travelling to York or the coast at Scarborough. Good connections by road and rail - notably the A64 and Malton railway station - keep it well linked, and a steady programme of local events and riverside conservation reflect an active community spirit.
