Settrington is a small village and civil parish tucked into the rolling chalk countryside of North Yorkshire, on the northern fringe of the Yorkshire Wolds and a short drive from Malton. The settlement retains a compact, rural character with traditional stone cottages and a parish church whose origins reflect the village’s medieval farming and estate past; surrounding fields and surviving ridge-and-furrow earthworks make the agricultural history visible in the landscape.
Farming still shapes the local economy, though many residents now commute to nearby market towns and York. There’s a quiet community life centred on village events and walking routes across the Wolds, and the parish’s peaceful setting makes it appealing for walkers and anyone seeking a slice of classic North Yorkshire countryside.
