Roxby is a tiny rural civil parish in North Yorkshire, tucked into the foothills where agricultural lowland meets the heathered slopes of the North York Moors and within easy reach of the Yorkshire coast. Its landscape of small farms, hedgerows and winding lanes gives a pleasantly remote, unspoilt feel and makes it a quiet spot for walkers and anyone seeking access to moorland and coastal scenery.
Historically an agricultural settlement with medieval roots, the parish still shows traces of older earthworks and traditional stone buildings; the local economy remains largely farming-based with some homes occupied by commuters or second‑home owners. Social life is small‑scale and community‑minded, tied into nearby villages and market towns, and its low population and historic character appeal to people who value rural character close to the Moors and coast.
