Map of the UK

Roecliffe is a small civil parish and village in the Harrogate district of North Yorkshire, lying just a short distance from the market town of Boroughbridge. It occupies gently rolling farmland on the edge of the Vale of York, with traditional stone cottages, farmsteads and a network of quiet lanes that make it popular for countryside walks and rural photography.

The local economy is largely agricultural, with a mix of working farms and residents who commute to nearby centres such as York and Harrogate. Social life is typical of a small English parish - centred on village events, the parish meeting and occasional community activities - and the area retains a strong sense of historic continuity in its landscape and buildings.
