Ryther with the small hamlet of Ossendyke is a compact, largely agricultural civil parish in rural North Yorkshire, set close to the floodplain of the River Wharfe. The landscape is typical of the area - rolling arable fields, hedgerows and riverside meadows that attract walkers and birdwatchers - and the river influences both scenery and occasional local flooding.
Its history is visible in a handful of listed buildings and a traditional parish church, while the local economy remains centred on farming with a few small rural businesses. Community life is quiet and close-knit, with village events and a parish council, and everyday services are reached in nearby market towns such as Tadcaster and Selby.
