Map of the UK

Oswaldkirk is a small village and parish in North Yorkshire, England, tucked on the southern fringe of the North York Moors. Set among rolling arable land and limestone outcrops, it provides easy access to moorland walks and quiet country lanes linking it with nearby market towns such as Helmsley and the city of York.

Historically centred on its medieval church dedicated to St Oswald and a handful of stone cottages and farmsteads, the settlement retains a strong rural character and an engaged community life; a village hall and local events help sustain its social fabric. The local economy is primarily agricultural, with a modest contribution from tourism - walkers, cyclists and holiday visitors who come for the moors, dales and village charm.
