Map of the UK

Reighton is a small, mainly rural parish on the east coast of North Yorkshire, set roughly between the seaside towns of Filey and Bridlington within the district of Scarborough. The area combines low, sandy coastline and agricultural land, with nearby cliffs and fossil-bearing deposits around Speeton attracting walkers and geology enthusiasts as well as holiday visitors.

The local economy still leans on farming but summer tourism - caravan parks, self-catering accommodation and beach days - adds a visible seasonal pulse. Socially it feels like a close-knit village community with parish activities and easy links by road to larger towns for services, while its long coastal and agricultural history gives the place a quietly rooted character.
