Map of the UK

Sexhow is a very small, rural civil parish in the Hambleton district of North Yorkshire, England. It sits in a quietly agricultural landscape of hedged fields and stone farmsteads rather than as a nucleated village, so the parish feels sparsely populated and largely residential or farmed rather than commercial.

The place has old roots reflected in local building styles and place‑names that hint at medieval and Old Norse influences, and community life tends to centre on neighbouring villages and market towns rather than on services within the parish itself. Its position on the southern fringes of the moorland country makes it convenient for countryside walking and rural pursuits, while economically it remains dominated by farming with many residents commuting to larger centres for work.
