Rand Grange is a very small, predominantly rural civil parish in North Yorkshire, England, centred on a historic grange farm and a handful of dispersed houses and fields. It has the quiet, agricultural character you expect of the Yorkshire countryside, with low population density and a landscape of hedged pastures and stone outbuildings rather than a distinct village core.
Historically the name reflects its origins as a grange or farm associated with larger medieval estates, and much of its interest is agricultural and architectural - old farm buildings, lanes and field boundaries that show continuity of land use. Today the local economy is still largely farming-based, with some residents commuting to nearby towns, and the area appeals to people who enjoy tranquil rural scenery and traditional Yorkshire country life.
