Osgodby is a small civil parish in North Yorkshire, sitting on the gentle, rolling landscape of the Yorkshire Wolds. Its name reflects a Viking-era origin - the familiar Old Norse personal name plus "by" for settlement - and the area remains largely rural, with patchwork arable fields, pasture and lanes.
Historically agricultural, the local economy still centres on farming though many residents commute to nearby market towns; a modest parish church, village hall and the network of footpaths and bridleways help sustain a close-knit community and make the parish popular with walkers and cyclists.
